It’s almost time to start planning the 2025 ILA Conference, and as the incoming President-Elect, I want to ensure that we have equal representation from academic libraries on the Conference Program Committee. If you are interested in volunteering–and haven’t already submitted your name to ILA*–please send me an e-mail, at carolyn.ciesla@elmhurst.edu, with your title, your institution, the number of years you’ve been in libraries, and any relevant experience.
The Committee will be finalized by mid-July, so please reach out to me no later than Friday, July 8. (I do have to include a small disclaimer that volunteering isn’t an automatic add to the Committee. Along with making sure we have enough academic folks on the Committee, we are also looking at representation from all areas of the state and inclusion of librarians of color.)
Please let me know if you have any questions!
*I already have all of the information from folks who submitted via the ILA web form. If you’re not sure if you filled out the form, drop me a note.
