Dear ACRL Board,

Please see the attached action form and accompanying documents regarding the following two actions. To vote on the actions, please complete both polls: Doodle Poll: Action 1 and Doodle Poll: Action 2. The voting period will be 4/19/2021 – 4/26/2021, and the Board will confirm its vote at the next synchronous meeting.

Action 1: That the ACRL Board of Directors approves the revisions of A Standard for the Appointment, Promotion and Tenure of Academic Librarians (Doc 1.1); ACRL Standards for Academic Librarians without Faculty Status (Doc 1.2); and ACRL Standards for Faculty for Academic Librarians (Doc 1.3).

Action 2: That the ACRL Board of Directors approves the Standards Committee recommendation that these three documents be put into the same review timeline with the three that were reaffirmed by the Board of Directors in 2018 (Joint Statement on Faculty Status of College and University Librarians, Statement on the Certification and Licensing of Academic Librarians, and Statement on the Terminal Professional Degree for Academic Librarians) so that all six are again considered together as a task force will need to be appointed by the Board for the next round of scheduled review in 2023.

Thank you,
Allison
