The Nominating Committee thanks everyone who nominated a candidate, ran for office, and voted in 2024.

It is not too soon to be thinking about 2025 elections! The Nominating Committee invites members to submit nominations or self-nominations for qualified candidates for the following positions.

Board 

President (three-year term)* 

Vice President (three-year term, eligible to run for one additional three-year term as President)

Director, Communications (three-year term)*

The AIC Bylaws require that candidates for officer and director positions be Fellows or Professional Members.

Nominating Committee

Nominating Committee Member (three-year term)

The candidate may be a Member, Professional Member, or Fellow. 

Self-nominations are strongly encouraged, as are nominations of members of underrepresented groups. 

Nominees for all positions must be members in good standing of AIC and should have prior experience with the functioning of the organization through service on committees, task forces, specialty groups, or in other capacities. The Nominating Committee must receive completed nominations by February 28, 2025, three months prior to the anticipated date of the Member Business Meeting. You may nominate yourself or another eligible member by completing this form https://forms.gle/mCAsDj6z8G9tuQVh8 or contacting Nominating Committee Chair Chela Metzger at cmetzger@library.ucla.edu.

The final slate will be announced to the membership in the spring and an electronic vote will be held in April for both board and Nominating Committee positions.

Committee members will gladly discuss any aspect of the nominating and election process with potential candidates and anyone interested in nominating candidates. Chela Metzger (cmetzger@library.ucla.edu), Bianca Garcia (bianca.m.garcia@gmail.com), or Nina Owczarek (ninao@udel.edu).
