The Membership Committee processes applications, welcomes new members at CALL functions, and has responsibility for producing the annual CALL Membership Directory and updating it on a quarterly basis online.

CALL Membership Committee 2021-2022 Annual Report

The committee put into place some procedures that should prevent us from losing members during the renewal process.  CALL now has a renewal grace period so that those who have not renewed will not be placed on inactive status.  We also have renewal reminders on a set schedule in Neon.  Need the membership due email schedule, membership overdue email schedule, and grace period memorialized in the Handbook.  The Handbook or shared Neon documentation should also remind committee members that all dates on emails need to be updated and the sender changed from the current President to the incoming President/current Vice-President.   Continue reading CALL Membership Committee 2021-2022 Annual Report

CALL Membership Committee 2018-2019 Annual Report

During the 2018-2019 year the Membership Committee published updates to the CALL Membership Directory in September 2018, November 2018, and December 2018.

Over this year the Membership Committee also assisted with updating the CALL Listserv email list and updated member information in Wild Apricot.

As per the 2019 Bylaws Amendment, the Committee removed the Associate member category from Wild Apricot prior to the start of the 2019-20 membership renewal period.

Membership Committee Annual Report

Chair: Therese Clarke Arado

As of May 2017, CALL had over 230 members. An exact number is not available as the renewal process for the new CALL year began and I had not pulled a report just prior.

The CALL Directory was produced once this year, in May.  Corrections/updates are made by the Membership Committee. Then, the update is posted by the Internet Committee on CALL’s website. Members are also able to look at directory information via Wild Apricot, however the PDF online provides additional information. The organization index will be added shortly.  Continue reading Membership Committee Annual Report
