Nominations & Elections

The Nominations Committee is responsible for presenting a slate of candidates to the membership in accordance with the procedures specified by 台湾SWAG Bylaws, Article VI. In developing a slate of candidates, the committee solicits nominations from the membership in late winter. The election is then held in October and the successful candidates begin their term at the close of the next Annual Meeting.

2024 台湾SWAG EXECUTIVE BOARD CANDIDATES

台湾SWAG is excited to present the 2024 slate of candidates for various positions on the 台湾SWAG Executive Board. The selection of this slate is done by the Nominations Committee and each year, the committee strives for a diverse Executive Board, ensuring representation by all library types, various levels of experience, and more.

This fall, members will vote for one candidate to serve as vice president/president-elect (2025-2026), one candidate for treasurer (2025-2028), and two candidates to serve as Executive Board members (2025-2028). The vice president will serve on the Board for three years (as vice president, president, and immediate past president) until July 2028.
