LLMC member libraries have met annually during AALL conventions since 1978. Our 37th Annual Meeting was held at AALL in San Antonio, Texas, on July 14. It was conducted under rules adopted in 2003 when LLMC's fiche-era libraries transferred control of the Consortium’s assets to LLMC-Digital’s Charter Members. As usual, the principal business of the annual meeting was elections to staff LLMC’s two governing bodies, our Board of Directors and Advisory Council. Voting rights for delegates reflected each library’s subscription status relative to LLMC-Digital.

Elections 2014

In the Board of Directors election two four-year slots were open due to the expired terms of Marcia Koslov, Dir. (Ret.), LA Law Library, and Jerry Dupont, Asso. Dir. for Content Development, LLMC. The outgoing Board of Directors presented two nominees for these positions: Jules Winterton, Executive Director and Law Librarian, Institute for Advanced Legal Studies, Univ. of London, and Richard Amelung, Prof. Emeritus of Legal Research, Saint Louis University Law School. No other nominations being made, the Board’s nominees were elected by acclamation.

Oklahoma L.L., Judith Gaskell Dir. (ret.), U.S. Sup. Ct. L., Marie Newman Dir., Pace U.L.L., Carol Roehrenbeck Dir.Ret., Rutgers L.L., Michelle Wu Dir., Georgetown U.L.L. An- other slot was opened by the election of Jules Winterton to the Board of Directors.

Agency; Mary Hemmings, Chief Law Libn., Thomson Rivers U.L.L. (Can.); Wendell Johnting, Asst. Dir. U. Indiana L.L.; and Jean Wenger, Gov. Docs. & FCIL Libn., Cook County L.L..
