The final chapter of #IGeLU2025 in Siena was dedicated to two special tracks running in parallel: the Developers Day and the Clarivate Knowledge Day. Developers Day organized by Mehmet Celik brought the technical community together. The program featured sessions on agentic AI, hands-on workshop on Library Open Workflows, customization of Primo NDE and other interesting case studies on data migrations, and integrations. Knowledge Day offered deep dives into product knowledge and practice, from maximizing Primo VE, working with linked data, and exploring the new AI Metadata Assistant, to advanced workshops on Alma normalization rules, analytics with Leganto, and the transition to the NDE UI. A huge thank you to all today’s presenters for sharing their expertise and inspiring the community: Mehmet Celik Christine Stohn @Jim Nicholls Nir Shoushan Martin Baumgartner Thomas Guignard Ben Gable Karl Becker @Danielle Books Martin Lovell @Stefan Schuh Ishay Ohayon Flavia Deluca Yoel Kortick Lili Daie Alessandro Fasoli Jessie Ransom Nili Natan #IGeLU #IGeLUconference #IGeLU2025 #DevelopersDay #KnowledgeDay #Clarivate

The final day of #IGeLU2025 wrapped up three intense and inspiring days in Siena. The community reflected on the role of libraries in AI-driven services, discovery beyond the catalogue, and the evolving integration of teaching and learning. Sessions showcased experiences on metadata innovation, large-scale Alma and Primo implementations, and strategies for collaboration and engagement. The day culminated with the closing keynote by Andrea Bonaccorsi (University of Pisa), who challenged us to rethink how we can measure and value book bibliometrics. The Farewell Session, led by Dave Allen (IGeLU Chair), was a moment of gratitude and celebration with the farewell to Guido Badalamenti, one of the pillars of IGeLU and the thanks to the conference organizers François Renaville, Giulia La Versa, and the PCO team of the University of Siena for their outstanding commitment. The prize draw generously supported by Ex Libris, from Clarivate, Riven and Springshare. And finally the exciting announcement that the 2026 IGeLU Conference will be in Taipei, Taiwan! The conference then closed with a Farewell Drink.
