Board of Directors

- ALN Bylaws
- Meeting agendas and minutes

During the first months of formation, ALN was directed by an organizational committee. After forming as a non-profit organization, it was directed by an Interim Board with guidance from the Alaska State Library’s Library Development staff. The Interim Board was made up of four members.

The Board of Directors consists of seven members, including one representative for the Alaska State Library and six members elected to represent academic, public, school, rural, special and Native libraries.

The first formal Board of Directors was elected January 2009. The initial terms will be chosen by lottery for 1, 2 and 3 year terms. Subsequent appointments will be for staggered 3 year terms. Directors, except the representative of the Alaska State Library, may serve no more than two consecutive terms.
