ILAB Presidents' Meeting 2025

The presidents of the 22 national associations affiliated to the League meet once a year at the General Annual Meeting or "Presidents' Meeting", which is held in a different country each year. In the year of a Congress, the Presidents' Meeting takes place the day before the start of the ILAB Congress.
The Presidents' Meeting is the supreme governing body of the League.

The international ILAB Committee meets once a year in person and regularly via video conference. Its task is to manage the affairs of the League and to implement the decisions taken at the Presidents' Meeting.
After the ILAB Presidents' Meeting, the presidents of the national associations report to their members.

Due to the COVID pandemic, the 2020 and 2021 meetings were held as virtual meetings. The 2022 ILAB Presidents' Meeting was held in Oxford, 2023 in Stockholm and 2024 in Amsterdam.
The next ILAB Presidents' Meeting will be held in Melbourne, 28th July 2025 at the State Library of Victoria, hosted by The Australian and New Zealand Association of Antiquarian Booksellers (ANZAAB).
