Greetings from the MLA Children’s and YA Lit Forum Executive Committee!

Our committee will be meeting online this year directly following the MLA Convention (Jan 5-8). At the meeting, we will be considering nominations for the Executive Committee as well as session proposals for MLA 2024 in Philadelphia (Jan 4-7).

So we can ensure representation from across our field of children’s and YA literature, we encourage you to self-nominate for service on the Forum’s Executive Committee and/or to propose a session for MLA 2024.

Self-Nomination Form for Exec Committee: https://tinyurl.com/mlachildlitexecnom

MLA Session Proposal Form: https://tinyurl.com/mlachildlitpropose

Guidelines and restrictions for both opportunities are included at the links above. However, if you have questions after reviewing that information, you’re welcome to email me as the Committee’s current Chair at westmank@ksu.edu.

Note: Self-nominations and proposals are due by **Sunday Jan 8 at 11:59pm ET ** using the links provided above.

Finally, our MLA Forum has typically opened our Forum meeting to colleagues not currently serving on the Executive Committee. For those who would like to join us, we are scheduled to meet on Tues Jan 10, 11:00am ET / 10:00am CT: https://tinyurl.com/mlachildlitexec2023
