  • 1.  Call for Volunteers: Executive Board Elections Ad-Hoc Committee

    Posted Feb 12, 2025 11:20 AM

    Dear ALA Councilor,

    At the January Council Meeting, the ALA Council approved the following motion:


    The Executive Board forms an Ad-Hoc Committee to explore the possibility of those standing for election to the Executive Board not be limited to Council members. The Ad-Hoc Committee will report to the Executive Board with recommendations by October 2025.

    For more information on the resolution, please read  CD 49 Resolution on Elections to Executive Board

    If you are interested in being considered for this Ad-Hoc Committee, please submit this interest form by Feb 23, 2025. If appointed by the Executive Board, you will hear from the ALA Governance Office with a formal appointment e-mail in March 2025.

    Thank you,

    ALA Governance Office

    Is this committee only open to current Councilors, or can other ALA members also apply?

    Thanks,
