The PLA Conference, Public Libraries magazine, and Project Outcome (just to name a few) are all direct outcomes of the participation of our members on PLA committees. All PLA members are urged to apply. We need the talent and skill of dedicated professionals like you!

Appointments

Each spring, the PLA president-elect will appoint PLA members to the committees and advisory groups you see listed below. If you are interested in volunteering to serve on one of these groups, please fill out the Committee Volunteer Form (you will need your login). Please note that PLA is not able to accommodate all volunteer requests; however we will keep your name and committee preferences for two years to allow for two rounds of committee appointments. Feel free to call the PLA office at 1-800-545-2433, ext. 5PLA (5752) for more information.
