ACRL Board Candidate Letter of Consent
I, (insert name), accept the nomination to run for (Councilor/Director-at-Large/President-Elect) of ACRL in the 20(XX) ACRL election. I understand that, if elected, I will serve a (3/4/3)-year term of office. I recognize that I must be a current member of ALA/ACRL when standing for office and while serving on the Board, if elected. I agree to have my contact information published in conjunction with the election.
I also acknowledge that, if elected, I am expected to attend all Board functions at ALA Annual Conferences and Midwinter Meetings, which have recently ranged from the Thursday morning preceding the conference at the earliest to the Tuesday evening of the conference at the latest. I am also expected to attend the annual fall Board Strategic Plan and Orientation Session, usually held from a Friday morning through Saturday afternoon in September or October.
Note: Expenses associated with attendance at the ALA Annual Conference and Midwinter Meeting are the Board member’s responsibility. ACRL will cover travel costs associated with other Board-related travel in accordance with current reimbursement policies.
