The Vice-President may be assigned other duties by the President (mandate: 1 year). Please note that the Vice-President becomes the President at the end of their mandate.

Treasurer: The Treasurer shall maintain financial records and perform any other duties inherent in the office (mandate: 2 years).

Please note that each member of the Executive Committee is required to belong to ARLIS/NA. He or she is encouraged to obtain financial support from their institution to cover the membership fees (if possible), but ARLIS/NA MOQ may cover the membership fee to ARLIS/NA (if necessary).

We strongly encourage you to play an active role in one of these positions!
