Representatives from the WNYLRC membership are appointed to WNYLRC Standing Committees by the WNYLRC Board of Trustees Executive Committee. Each standing committee can have up to 13 members from the membership in addition to one or more WNYLRC, DLIS, or other standing committee or subcommittee liaisons. Care is taken in ensuring representatives from all types of libraries (private academic, public academic, public, school, special, and patron membership) as well as geographic areas.
