<p>The State Library of Oregon is currently accepting nominations for the <a href="https://www.oregon.gov/library/libraries/Pages/lstaac.aspx" target="_top">
Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) Advisory Council</a>!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><b>ABOUT THE COUNCIL</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The LSTA Advisory Council is appointed by the State Library Board to advise the Board on matters concerning the administration of LSTA funding and support for Oregon libraries, as allotted to Oregon by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). 
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The Council consists of thirteen members and is broadly representative of library entities in Oregon, including public, school, academic, and special libraries. Special consideration is given to ensure that geographic areas of our state are represented by
 the Council, as are library users and representatives of underserved / under-represented persons.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The Council typically meets twice a year, in the spring and fall, online. An additional one or two meetings may be held each year as needed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><b>OPEN POSITIONS</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p>We would like to fill the following positions:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul type="disc">

<p>Terms are for three years, beginning on January 1, 2023 and ending on December 31, 2025. There is one exception this year: one of the Library Users Representative positions is filling a vacancy, so the term will only last one year (ending December 31, 2023).<o:p></o:p></p>
