Subject:  IFLA Acq. and Coll. Dev. Committee representative
wanted from ALCTS CMDS (short turnaround time)


Please excuse cross-postings.

Wanted: ALCTS CMDS member to serve on the IFLA Standing Section
Committee on Acquisitions and Collection Development.  Nominations to
this committee rotate between the Acquisitions Section and the Collection
Management and Development Section.  An Acquisitions Section member
filled a vacant position on this committee in 2006, so this vacancy is 
to be
filled by a CMDS member.  It is for a 4-year term, running 2009-2013.

Please share as widely as possible with your committee members and
other colleagues.  Also consider nominating yourself.

A nominee should be an expert in the field covered by the section and have
a working knowledge of at least one working language of IFLA (English is
an IFLA working language), and should have reasonable expectation of
attending meetings of the standing committee without cost to IFLA or to
ALA. ALA divisions and other units may seek outside funding to support
the attendance of their representatives.

The 2008 conference will be held in Quebec City, Canada and the 2009
conference will be held in Milan, Italy.

The ALA Executive Board requires that the suggestions for nominations
be accompanied by a resume and a rationale from the nominating body
or individual. If nominated, IFLA requires that the following be provided:
(a) An indication of acceptance of the nomination by the individual;
(b) A short statement detailing the nominee's qualifications and indication
of present position;
(c) Affirmation that the person can fulfill the working language and travel
requirements

Please send names to me on or before May 20, 2008. 
Contact information below.

Thanks!
