Nominations for the single opening for the BCR OCLC Users Council delegate election are being accepted until January 26. Any BCR/OCLC general member may nominate a candidate for the committee's consideration for the delegate position by submitting the signature of one official voting representative and the written permission of the potential nominee. You may fax the petition to BCR at (303) 751-9787.

The nominating committee also will develop a slate of candidates for the spring trustee election. Suggestions are being accepted for the four positions open on the BCR Board of Trustees, those of Marilyn Mercado and William Knott, both at-large trustees; Leroy Gattin, processing centers and school libraries trustee; and Frances Clymer, special libraries trustee.

Contact BCR's Joyce Hillshafer (jhillsha@bcr.org) if you would like to volunteer for consideration for the Board of Trustees slate. She will pass the information on to the nominating committee.

BCR members also may nominate a write-in candidate for the BCR Board who will automatically be added to the election slate. Send the written permission of the nominee plus signatures of 10 voting BCR members to BCR. Contact Hillshafer for a write-in nomination form, which may be faxed to (303) 751-9787.
