NILRC is seeking candidates for the 2021-22 Board. On Friday, May 7, 2021, members will vote for the Chair-elect and two (2) Member-at-large positions during our Annual Council of Delegates meeting.

The nomination process begins with an open call for nominations for these positions. NILRC invites all members to nominate a colleague. Self-nominations are also encouraged. According to NILRC bylaws, nominees appearing on the slate must be from a full-member institution.

The deadline for submission of nominations is Wednesday, March 31, 2021.

What does Board service involve?

The Board meets remotely every month. Board members are asked to attend the Annual Meeting, held each year in May. During this meeting, the Board approves the NILRC Operating Budget for the next year and discusses other business. Board members also participate in a day-long planning meeting held in July. The Chair presides over the Board and provides leadership to membership and NILRC staff.

Board membership provides opportunities for networking, leadership, and a deeper understanding of the trends and challenges in learning resources in community colleges.
