Volunteer to Serve on an ILA Committee!
December 7, 2021Are you interested in serving on an ILA Committee? If you are, now is the time to submit a committee interest form! Appointments begin July 1, and most committee members serve two- or three-year terms.
ILA's committees provide major support services for ILA membership, leadership, special interest groups, and the Executive Board. Committee chairs are appointed by the current ILA president with the approval of the Executive Board. Terms of office vary and include a single one-year term for most committees.
The opportunity to serve on or chair an ILA committee is a benefit of ILA membership; committee members and chairs are expected to maintain current personal membership in ILA.
Not sure which committee is right for you? View the list of ILA committees. The list includes the names of the committee's current chair(s) and members as well as the committee's responsibilities.
If you have any questions about committees, please contact the ILA office at ila@ila.org.
