The call for board nominations is the first step in the process of electing new Council board members. Over the next few months, the Council’s Governance Committee will consider the nominations it receives, and in late January, members will receive the slate of nominees the committee has chosen for their consideration at the Annual Business Meeting, which is held in conjunction with the Council’s Annual Conference, April 7–9, 2013, in Chicago. The table below includes a detailed timeline.
