  11. #ifladial Q1. would like to see more transparency in decision-making processes here, more discussion and not just final decisions
  12. In fact, via which channels IFLA communicates with you? How effective it is? #IFLAdial
  13. Q1 To me IFLA consists of many friendly persons hampered by a rather inflexible structure (changing slowly ...) #ifladial
  14. #IFLAdial Q1: most communication between IFLA officers and activists is at the WLICs face to face
  15. Q1 would like ongoing, constant communication online. agree with @npsig about WLIC tendences! #ifladial
  16. #ifladial Q1. e.g. @wlic2012 we heard about confusion regarding the Strategic Planning; several layers currently, so more clarity would help
  17. Q1 The web site mixes archaic (mail system !!!), administrative (formal news items), semi-modern (blog platform) and moderns (RSS) #ifladial
  18. #ifladial Q1: mailing lists are rather old fashion for the younger activists
  19. Q1 also @IFLA account seems to barely engage with their followers - very few replies etc #ifladial
  20. Q2. What do you think about the way that IFLA communicates with its members? #IFLAdial
  21. RT @npsig: #ifladial Q1: mailing lists are rather old fashion for the younger activists
