Synopsis
Ilse Dosoudil outlines the VÖB’s evolution amid European changes and digitalization. After the fall of the Iron Curtain, cross-border collaboration intensified, including partnerships with library associations from Hungary and the Czech Republic. The VÖB promotes professional exchange through commissions, such as the Legal Affairs Commission, which addresses EU directives, copyright, and contract law. Today, the VÖB represents nearly all library sectors and is well-connected across Europe.
