YALSA Reps to ALA Member Groups

Some individuals serve as representative beause of their role in YALSA.  For those ALA Committees and groups that do not have a direct YALSA counterpart, YALSA's ALA Liaison serves as the representative.

Besides the groups below, YALSA also identifies a member to serve as its representative on the USBBY Board of Directors or an IFLA Section.  The USBBY and IFLA opportunities are only available every two years, as YALSA shares this role with AASL and ALSC.  Contact the YALSA office for details. 

YALSA Reps to USBBY and IFLA:

  • IFLA (2015 – 2019): vacant
  • USBBY (2018 – 2019): vacant
