Time to Vote


By rburgin - Posted on 31 May 2011

It's that time again.  Time to elect the NCLA officers for the next biennium.

This year, the election ballot will be online, and NCLA members should receive an email with the URL on or shortly after June 1.  The ballot will be open until June 30, at which time the winners will be announced.

This election will include the following offices:

  • Vice-President / President-Elect
  • Secretary
  • Treasurer-Elect
  • Two Directors at Large
  • Southeastern Library Association Representative

Information on the individuals running for the offices is available on the NCLA Website at http://www.nclaonline.org/sites/default/files/documents/elections/Election-Slate-2011.doc.

I'm not going to urge you to vote for anyone in particular.  That's for you to decide.  But I am going to urge all NCLA members to vote.  Voting in the NCLA election is one of the privileges of membership, and I hope that every member will exercise that privilege.

There have been elections in the recent past that were decided by just a handful of votes.  Your vote will matter.  So just do it.
