Applications are now being accepted for the next class of MLA Rising Stars. This exciting new program is for MLA members who are interested in MLA leadership roles but who have not yet become active at a national level. Applications also are sought from MLA units who wish to host a Rising Star.
Michelle Kraft posted the results of the MLA Elections and a survey from the nominating committee on the election process.
Connie Schardt, MLA President, gives a short video update (from the MLA Connections blog):
Congratulations to chapter members Karen Albert and Anne Seymour, who were elected to the MLA national Nominating Committee. Their term will begin at the conclusion of the 2009 Hawaii conference.
Ruth Holst will be President-elect.
The MLA Board began a new blog, MLA Connections, to provide an easy way for the MLA Board and the membership to communicate with each other. From Mary Ryan’s welcome message:
The blog will include updates on priorities and major initiatives, Board activities and decisions, and activities of committees, task forces, sections, and chapters. The blog will also be used to respond to MLA-related postings on individual blogs, instead of just responding on each blog, which many people might not see.
I added its feed to mlaphil.org, so you’ll see recent posts in the right colum. You can also sign up for email notifications.
