Apologies for cross-posting

Forwarding a message from Mary Case, ALCTS Vice 
President/President-elect:

Interested in serving on an ALCTS Division or Section Committee?

Concerned that limited funding may make it impossible for you to 
attend conferences?

Don’t worry. Volunteer anyway!

Keep in mind that many committees now do much of their work 
between conferences by e-mail and phone calls. There are also 
some committees (such as award juries) that don’t meet at 
conference at all. And we do have virtual members on committees. 
The ALCTS appointing officers are committed to working with 
volunteers to find an appropriate spot for you. Just let us know 
your circumstances when you fill out the volunteer form.

Additional hints: Don’t select all committees. Tell us the top 3 
or 4 you are interested in. And tell us as much about yourself in 
terms of experiences and interests. We don’t know all of you 
personally at this point and the information will help us 
determine a good fit.

Don’t forget, Volunteer Forms are due by March 1 to assure 
consideration.
