ALLA National AGM 17th September

Posted on the ALLA-ANZ e-mail list

The ALLA (National) Annual General Meeting will be held via webinar / teleconference at 1.00PM AEST (11.00AM AWST) on Thursday September 17th 2015.

The agenda is available on the ALLA website.


One of the most important tasks of the AGM is the appointment of the new Board. ALLA Ltd is calling for nominations for the following positions:

  • Vice President
  • Secretary
  • Treasurer
  • 3 General Directors
The nominations document on the website lists a number of benefits for members who join the Board. All directors have the exciting opportunity to play an active role in the future planning and strategic decisions of our Association.

Our current Vice-President, Elizabeth Langeveldt, will become the National President of the Australian Law Librarians Association Ltd. The Board is particularly interested in receiving nominations for the role of Vice President and Secretary as there will be no nominations for these positions by current directors.

If you would like to know more about becoming a director, please contact Karen Rowe-Nurse, myself or any of the other ALLA directors - we are all very happy to answer questions or discuss our experiences on the Board.

Nominations must be received by Thursday 3rd September 2015. If more than one nomination is received for a position, a vote will be held by members as per the ALLA Ltd Constitution.

Kind regards,
Amanda Surrey Secretary and Director, ALLA Ltd
