Libraries are navigating a period of rapid change. AI, automation, shifting user expectations, and increasing pressure on resources are reshaping how libraries think about services, workflows, discovery, and long-term strategy.
At IGeLU 2026, attendees can explore these changes alongside peers, product experts, community leaders, and Clarivate users who are working through many of the same questions.
Taking place in Taipei from October 19th to 22nd , IGeLU 2026 will bring together library professionals from across EMEA, APAC, and beyond for four days of learning, discussion, and collaboration.
Learn from peers and product experts
One of the most valuable parts of the event is the opportunity to learn directly from peers who are solving real-world problems in their own institution. Customer-led sessions how libraries are moving from broad questions to practical action: using AI to support metadata work and service development, cleaning up Alma data to improve discovery and reporting, embedding accessibility into Primo workflows, using analytics to guide collection decisions, and addressing discovery challenges for multilingual and non-English users. Together, these sessions are designed to move beyond theory, offering practical takeaways from libraries working through similar questions in different local contexts.
Attendees can also expect product-focused conversations across Clarivate library solutions, including Alma, Primo, Rapido, Leganto, Alma Specto, Library Open Workflows, and related areas of innovation. Sessions and discussions will cover product roadmaps, AI and automation, workflow improvements, discovery experiences, metadata, resource sharing, and future development priorities.
Beyond the formal program, the event creates space for conversations that are difficult to replicate online. Attendees can meet product managers and Clarivate experts, ask questions, share feedback, and discuss local needs directly with the people shaping product direction. These conversations can help libraries better understand what is coming next and how future developments may support their own priorities.
Build connections across regions
The event also creates space for regional and global connection. For APAC libraries, it brings the Clarivate user community closer to home. For EMEA attendees, it offers an opportunity to hear different perspectives, compare approaches, and bring new ideas back to their own institutions.
Whether you’re shaping library strategy, managing systems, exploring AI, or improving discovery and resource sharing, you can expect opportunities to learn from the community, engage with product experts, and return with practical insights for the work ahead.
Register before the Early Bird deadline on 31 August 2026 to secure your place in Taipei.
