ACRL Board of Directors’ actions: Highlights of the Board’s LibLearnX and fall meetings

Abstract

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, association governance continues to take place virtually. For the inaugural ALA LibLearnX, the ACRL Board of Directors met virtually in January and February 2022. The Board held a virtual update session on January 25 and held Board meetings on January 27 and 28. In addition, the Board and Budget and Finance Committee convened for their annual joint meeting on February 1. This article also includes actions taken by the ACRL Executive Committee on November 9, 2021.

In January, the Board received updates from the leaders of the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee, as well as its four goal-area committees: New Roles and Changing Landscapes, Research and Scholarly Environment, Student Learning and Information Literacy, and Value of Academic Libraries to assess progress on the Plan for Excellence.
