    Posted Jul 15, 2025 02:07 PM

    Hello!

     

    Do you know a colleague with vision, energy, and a commitment to academic libraries? Have you considered deepening your own engagement with ACRL and the University Libraries Section?

     

    We are currently seeking candidates for the following leadership roles:

    • Vice-Chair/Chair-Elect (3-year term: 2026–2029, including service as Immediate Past Chair)
    • Member-at-Large (3-year term: 2026–2029)

     

    The ULS Nominating Committee will review all submissions and select three nominees per position to appear on the Spring 2026 ACRL ballot. If selected, nominees should plan to become members of ACRL and the ULS section to qualify for election, if not current members.

    📅 Deadline: Friday, August 1, 2026, at 11:59 PM (your local time)

    ULS operates as a fully virtual section-no in-person meetings are required for elected officers or members. Serving in ULS leadership is a meaningful way to shape our profession and build community across institutions.

     

    Thank you for helping shape the future of our section and its leadership!

     

    Warm regards,
