As ALA President-Elect, I chair both the Committee on Appointments (COAppt.) and the Committee on Committees (COC). Committee appointments will be finalized at the 2014 ALA Midwinter Meeting in Philadelphia, and notifications will be sent out later that spring. All committee appointments begin July 1, 2014.
