IFLA Sections and SLA members on the Standing Committees
SLA belongs to 21 of the 44 IFLA Sections. These are identified by an "*" and bolding. Not all IFLA Section Committees have an SLA member on them. Not all nominees were elected, so not all Sections of which SLA is member have a representative. The next election cycle will occur in 2011 for 2011-2015. Please contact Caroline Rives crives@sla.org any questions regarding the following information of interest in positions with IFLA.
