The 2019-2020 CALL Archives Committee was comprised of Committee co-chairs Brittany Adams and Lucy Robbins, as well as Committee members, Patricia Scott, Jill Meyer and Matt Timko. Joe Mitzenmacher served as board liaison.
The CALL archives were moved back to the city from Northern Illinois University to Loyola University Chicago. The main effort this year was to get the new archives set up at Loyola and to make a plan to digitize the files. The CALL board authorized the committee to purchase file cabinets to house the archives, but with the disruption of the year due to COVID-19, we were not yet able to do so. During the 2020-2021 year, we plan to continue to set up the archives and begin the digitization process using the CALL hard drive and/or CALL Google account.
The CALL Bulletin has published 3 of the four 2019-2020 issues up to the writing of this report (Issues 252-254) with the Spring and Summer issues to be published in the near future. The committee for the most of the year included Emily Barney (co-editor), Emily Byrne (co-editor), Matt Timko (co-editor), Debbie Ginsberg and Sarah Reis.

The Bylaws Committee met once during the 2019/2020 CALL year. There were no updates to the Bylaws for the current year and so no amendments were drafted or voted upon.

The 2019-2020 Committee members were chair Jean Wegner, Susan Siebers, Betty Roeske, and Heidi Kuehl. Phillip Johnson, CALL Secretary, was the Board liaison. Susan needed to withdraw from the Committee mid-year. We appreciate and acknowledge her longstanding dedication to CALL and our corporate memory.
