Mission Statement:
The Chicago Association of Law Libraries (CALL) connects a vibrant and diverse network of members by supporting the development of professional expertise; encouraging leadership, collaboration, and advocacy in the legal information community; and promoting and enhancing the field of law librarianship.

The Chicago Association of Law Libraries (CALL) was formed in 1947 as a chapter of the American Association of Law Libraries. CALL primarily serves law librarians in Chicago, northern Illinois, northwest Indiana and southeastern Wisconsin. Current members number over three hundred, representing nearly one hundred forty organizations.

The CALL Board of Directors is composed of a President, Vice President/President-Elect, Secretary Treasurer, two Directors and immediate Past President, all of whom are elected by the CALL membership. The Board meets monthly. There are sixteen standing committees within CALL, each with a chairperson and one or more committee members. Each committee also has a Board liaison.

CALL produces several publications, including the CALL Bulletin (four times per year), an annual Membership Directory, and the CALL Handbook for Officers and Committee Chairs (PDF). Additionally, the CALL Bylaws (PDF) are available for review.
