Charge and membership, as established in the ArchivesSpace Bylaws
The Role of the Nominating Committee will be to administer the process of electing members to the Governance Board and of recommending members for appointment to the Technical and User Advisory councils. That role entails calling for nominations, conducting elections for Governance Board members and announcing winners to the Board and ArchivesSpace community, assessing nominees for councils and recommending appointees to the Board, and confirming all appointments with appointees.
The Nominations Committee will be constituted at the 3rd Quarter Board Meeting each year (typically in March), and it will begin its work in early April. Its work will conclude in June after elections have concluded and appointments made to the councils.
The Nominations Committee will include the following members:
- Chair of the Governance Board, or another Board member delegated the role
- Chair of the Technical Advisory Council
- Chair of the User Advisory Council
- Five at large members, each representing one of the ArchivesSpace membership levels
- ArchivesSpace Program Manager, ex officio
The Chair of the Nominating Committee will be the Chair of the Governance Board, or the assigned delegate.
