At its December meeting, the president of the BCR Board of Trustees will appoint a
nominating committee to prepare the official election slates for this spring's BCR OCLC
Users Council delegate and Board of Trustees elections.
Official voting representatives of each BCR/OCLC
library in December will receive a mailing with election information, including a
nomination petition. Any BCR/OCLC general member may nominate a candidate for
consideration for BCR's OCLC Users Council delegate position by submitting the
signature of one official voting representative and the written permission of the potential
nominee. Petitions to nominate must be received at BCR's Aurora office no later than
January 28, 2000.
The nominating committee also will develop a slate of candidates for the spring trustee
election. Contact BCR's Joyce Hillshafer (jhillsha@bcr.org) if you would like to
volunteer for consideration for the Board of Trustees slate. Hillshafer will pass the
information on to the nominating committee.
You also may nominate a write-in candidate for the BCR Board. To automatically add the
nomination to the election slate, send the written permission of the nominee and the
signatures of 10 voting BCR members to BCR. Contact BCR's Joyce Hillshafer for a
write-in nomination form.
