Serving Your Organization

Thank you for considering volunteering your time and talent to a RUSA or RUSA Section committee. Volunteer service is the lifeblood of our organization. You will benefit from your service to RUSA in ways you may not even imagine! Whether you have a specific committee in mind or just want to cast your fate to the wind, fill out one of the forms via the links below. Your online form is sent directly to the appointing officer. Appointments are made in the spring for terms that begin after Annual Conference.

The RUSA Membership Committee invites RUSA members to visit, in person or virtually, with library science students. Learn more about this initiative. 

For 2007, ALA now has an online system for volunteering, tied to membership databases to ensure up-to-date lists of committees.

Be sure to log into the ALA Web site before proceeding.

Go to the RUSA Online Volunteer Form (This will open in another window.)

If you have problems with the above form, listed below are the old committee volunteer forms and below them, the forms for accepting appointment to a committee. Thank you for volunteering.

Committee Acceptance Forms

These acceptance forms serve a different function than the volunteer forms, so please do not use them unless you have been directed to by the appointing officer (e.g., the division vice-president or section vice-chair). Be sure to use the form appropriate to the section with which you anticipate working. Thank you.
