The 2020- 2021 Nominations Committee is composed of chair Barbara Engstrom (King County Law Library) and Jonathan Franklin (UW Law School). Per the LLOPS Bylaws, the committee represents at least 2 types of law libraries.  We would love to have a law firm member as well, let me know if you’d like to join us.

 We are currently recruiting candidates for the positions of Vice-President/President Elect and Secretary.  The duties of these positions can be found in the Chapter Manual on http://llops.org/

You many nominate yourself or a colleague you believe would be an asset to the chapter.  We highly encourage self-nominations.  Serving on the executive board of a professional organization such as LLOPS is a fantastic way to gain executive management experience that might not otherwise be available in your organization. It is a great way to fill leadership gaps in your resume.

Barbara

The LLOPS Nominations and Elections Committee is looking for candidates interested in becoming the future President and future Treasurer of LLOPS.  Serving on the LLOPS Board is a great experience.  As a Board member you will make an important contribution to LLOPS and have the opportunity to work with a wonderful group of people.

Serving as President involves a three year commitment.  The first year is spent as Vice-President/President Elect.  You will attend Board meetings, be a member of the Programs Committee, and generally learn the ropes.   The second year is your year as President.  As President you will set the agenda for LLOPS, preside at LLOPS business meetings and Executive Board meetings, appoint volunteers to committees, and represent LLOPS at Chapter Leadership training at the AALL Annual Meeting.  As Past-President you will attend Board meetings in an advisory capacity.

Serving as LLOPS Treasurer is a two year commitment.  As Treasurer you will play an important part as a member of the Executive Board.  Responsibilities include attending LLOPS business meetings and Board meetings, managing and keeping records of Chapter financial transactions, and preparing financial reports.
