Members are appointed for 3-year terms beginning on July 1. A rotation system has been established for the expiring terms whereby approximately one third of the committee membership is appointed each year. For detailed information about the appointment process, see Section 9 in the Guidelines for CARLI Committees.

Recommendations for new or enhanced CARLI products, services and programs should be sent to the CARLI Products & Services Vetting Committee or the CARLI Program Planning Committee.
