Dear ARLIS/NA members,

We are seeking committee members for governance year 2023-2024. Serving on a committee is a great way to connect with colleagues, learn about how the Society works, and provide valuable service to your fellow ARLIS/NA members.  Many committees are looking for enthusiastic and engaged individuals and several require no special experience. Whether you have been an ARLIS/NA member for 4 weeks or 40 years, you can contribute to the important work of the Society by serving on a committee.

Find a list of committees and their charges at https://www.arlisna.org/committees. You will also find contact information for committee chairs, should you like to reach out to find out more about a particular committee. Chairs can also provide information about expected competencies and time commitments.

Please fill out this form to indicate your interest in serving on a committee.

Applications are rolling. Don’t hesitate to apply if you would like to be involved with any of the committees. 

If you have any general questions please contact me at [log in to unmask].

Committee Appointment Process Overview

·       The Vice President puts out a call for chairs for committees with chair vacancies. Done.

·       At the January or February Executive Board meeting, the board will vote on a slate of committee chairs proposed by the Vice-President. VP will get in touch with everyone who applies. Done.

·       The Vice President will post a general call to solicit members to serve on committees and subcommittees.

·       Incoming committee chairs, in consultation with outgoing committee chairs, or continuing chairs as appropriate, will select new members for their committee. Committee chairs will ascertain which committee members are eligible and willing to serve again.

·       Committee members who are eligible for reappointment may bypass the recruitment process.

·       The ARLIS/NA governance year 2023-2024 commences with the annual conference in Mexico City. Business meetings will be held online during the two weeks following the conference.

 

We do a broad call for committee leaders and committee members as an inclusive practice with the hope that it will diversify member involvement. We also encourage committee chairs and members to recruit for new members.

 Please don’t hesitate getting in touch about the committee recruitment process.

 

Warmly,

Rachel
