Nominating Committee
2011-2012 Annual Report

Members: Carmen Brigandi, Chair; Sarah Repinski; Jen Richter.

In late July 2011 during the AALL meeting in Philadelphia the Nominations Committee met to discuss and begin making a selection of possible candidates for three positions: Vice-Chair/Chair-Elect, Secretary/Treasurer, and Member-at-Large. In late October the Committee began culling the list of candidates to find qualified members to fill the positions for the Vice-Chair/Chair-Elect position. Once written acceptances for that position were received, the Committee than worked through the rest of the list to fill the other two positions with candidates.

On December 13, 2011 I emailed the slate of candidates to Chair Ismael Gullon along with the acceptance emails from each of the 6 candidates. The Executive Board approved the slate of: Michael Maben and Brian Striman for Vice Chair/Chair-Elect; Kathy Faust and Hollie White for Secretary/Treasurer; and Leigh Inman and Cindy Spadoni for Member-at-Large. Online election via AALL was held in early April, with results posted to the TS list on April 20th, 2012 announcing Brian Striman for Vice-Chair/Chair-Elect; Hollie White for Secretary/Treasurer, and Cindy Spadoni as Member-at-Large. The Committee thanks Michael Maben, Kathy Faust, and Leigh Inman for their willingness to be nominated.

Please advise next year's Nominations Chair that I have several possible candidates for next year's elections.

Respectively submitted,

Carmen Brigandi
