The time to lead: ACRI seeks nominees for office

Would you like to seek office in an ACRL section? Would you like to nominate anyone else for one of these positions? If the answers is yes, here is what you need to do.

ACRL section officers

Candidates for vice-chair/chair-elect of ACRL sections are selected by the Nominating Committee of each section. If you would like to nominate someone or be nominated for vice-chair of an ACRL section, contact the chair of the Nominating Committee for the appropriate section prior to the ALA Annual Conference in Washington, D.C.

Other section officers, including secretary and member-at-large, may also be under consideration for this term of office, which will begin in the summer of 1999.
