Dear ALA Council colleagues,

I wanted to be sure everyone saw the call for volunteers to serve on ALA
and Council committees for 2014-2015. I chair both the Committee on
Appointments (COAppt.) and the Committee on Committees (COC). Committee
appointments will be finalized at the 2014 ALA Midwinter Meeting in
Philadelphia, and notifications will be sent out later that spring. All
committee appointments begin July 1, 2014.

The online committee volunteer form (
http://www.ala.org/CFApps/Committee/volunteerform/volunteerform.cfm) opened
on Tuesday, Aug. 13, 2013, and closes on Friday, Nov. 1, 2013. To
volunteer, complete and submit the form. Please be sure to select "ALA" in
the drop-down menu on the main form to volunteer for both ALA and Council
committees.

Volunteers are sought for the following committees: Accreditation; American
Libraries Advisory; Awards; Budget, Analysis and Review; Chapter Relations;
Conference; Constitution and Bylaws; Council Orientation; Diversity;
Education; Election; Human Resource Development and Recruitment Advisory;
Information Technology Policy Advisory; Intellectual Freedom; International
Relations; Legislation; Library Advocacy; Literacy; Literacy and Outreach
Services Advisory; Membership; Membership Meetings; Organization; Policy
Monitoring (current Council members only); Professional Ethics; Public and
Cultural Programs Advisory; Public Awareness; Publishing; Research and
Statistics; Resolutions; Rural, Native and Tribal Libraries of All Kinds;
Scholarships and Study Grants; Status of Women in Librarianship; Training,
Orientation and Leadership Development; Website Advisory; ALA-Children's
Book Council (Joint); and ALA-Society of American Archivists-Association of
American of Museums (Joint).

Visit the ALA and Council Committees webpage for committee descriptions:

For technical assistance or for more information on the committee
appointments process, contact Kerri Price, COAppt. and COC staff liaison (

Sincerely,

Courtney Young
ALA President-elect
