It is time to begin making Process Committees, Juries, Taskforces & Advisory Boards. If you are interested in serving on a YALSA Process committee here is some information you may find helpful…
If you are new to committee work, a Process Committee, Jury, Taskforces & Advisory Board can be an excellent way to get to get your feet wet and begin to learn how committees work. There are nearly 30 different Process Committees, Juries, Taskforces & Advisory Boards ranging from Legislation to Teen Read Week and everything in between so it is easy to find a committee that fits your interests. A complete list of YALSA Process Committees, Juries, Taskforces & Advisory Boards is available.
It is always a good idea for everyone to do some background work and find out how each committee works by checking the YALSA page for a description of each committee’s function. Volunteer forms for Process Committees, Juries, Taskforces & Advisory Boards are available on the YALSA web site and are due Feb. 28, 2010 for this round of appointments.
Incoming chairs will be appointed by February 19, 2010 and full committees will be appointed by May 7, 2010.
