[Lswtalk] changes to Articles

[Erin Chesnutt]

As I was typing up the proposed changes to send to Jessica for the 
mail-out, I realized there was another section of Article VI that needs 
amending.  I'm including it below (see (2) Article VI (b)) for your 
perusal. If there are objections / concerns, let's get the discussion 
out of the way soon so that Jessica can send out the meeting notice well 
in advance of the August meeting.  Sorry for the oversight and added 
confusion.

Proposed changes to the Articles of Incorporation:

(1)  Article VI (a) to read:
The corporate powers and management of the corporation shall be vested 
in and exercised by a Board of Directors of six (6) members composed of 
three (3) members from each of the following groups: (1) Public Library 
employees; and  (2) Academic, School, Special, and Other Members.

(2) Article VI (b) to read :

Election of the Directors may be at a meeting or by mail and will be 
held annually in the fall for appointment beginning January 1 of the 
following year. Any unexpired term occurring among the Directors by 
death, resignation, or otherwise shall be filled by election by the 
remaining members of the Board.

Terms of office shall be for two-year, commencing with the election. 
Terms of office for the first election will be as follows: Each group 
will elect one member to a one-year term and two members to a two-year 
term. Thereafter all will be elected to a two-year term except those 
selected to fill a vacant position, who will serve the remainder of the 
unexpired term.
