Most developed countries have ageing populations and people who are living longer. What are the implications and opportunities for public libraries? This fourth annual Auslib conference will help public libraries in Australia and New Zealand to plan inclusive strategies to identify and meet the needs of older adults. Next Chapters will have international, New Zealand and Australian speakers, panel sessions, targeted recommendations to governments, and full published proceedings. Its aims are to
• Identify who are today’s older adults, where they are, what they want, how you can give them what they want, and how you can tell them that you have what they want.
• Increase the awareness of public librarians and others about public library initiatives for older adults now occurring internationally and in Australia and New Zealand.
• Increase political awareness of the unique scope and return on investment in public libraries.
