in the Council, which may influence who is nominated.<br>
<br>
We are looking for suggestions for:<br>

Academic Library Representative (1 position)<br>
Public Library Representative (1 position)<br>
Special Library Representative (1 position)<br>
Library Users Representative (1 position)<br>

Board on LSTA competitive grants and statewide programs. Terms on the Council
are for three years. Elected people would serve from January 2010 to December
2012. The Council normally meets twice a year in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Salem</st1:place></st1:City> (May and September), with special meetings
as needed. All travel expenses are reimbursed for Council members to attend
meetings. Minutes from Council meetings, and information on Council members can
be found at: <a href="http://www.oregon.gov/OSL/LD/lstacouncil.shtml">http://www.oregon.gov/OSL/LD/lstacouncil.shtml</a><br>
