    Good Day ALA Council,


    On behalf of the Council Election Tellers Committee, Amber Williams, Maria Estrella, Leah Richardson and myself, Adriana Blancarte-Hayward, Head Teller, it is my pleasure to present the results of the 2025 ALA Executive Board Election.

    The ALA Executive Board Election opened immediately following the Executive Board Candidates Forum on Sunday, January 26, 2025 and closed this morning, Thursday, January 30, 2025 at 9:00 a.m. Central Time. The Council Election Tellers Committee met to review and certify the election results.

    For the 2025-2028 ALA Executive Board election, 156 ballots were returned.

    The candidates receiving the highest number of votes in each category have been elected to serve 3-year terms (2025-2028) and will be seated on the ALA Executive Board at the conclusion of the 2025 Annual Conference in Philadelphia. Their term will end at the conclusion of the 2028 Annual Conference.

    The following candidates were elected to serve a (3)-year term:

    • Tatanisha Love (At-Large)
    • Janice Moore Newsum (Round Table)
    • K.C. Boyd (AASL)
    • Ziba Pérez (Chapter)

    Congratulations to the newly elected ALA Executive Board Members who will serve on the ALA Executive Board 2025-2028 term.
