The Annual Meeting of the Association for Mormon Letters will be held Saturday, March 8 in the Wilkinson Center on the campus of Brigham Young University.

The theme of the conference is: Scripture as Literature and Scripture in Literature:

“For I command all men, both in the east and in the west, and in the north, and in the south, and in the islands of the sea, that they shall write the words which I speak unto them; for out of the books which shall be written I will judge the world, every man according to their works”
2 Nephi, 29: 11

At the business meeting of the next Annual Meeting of AML, we will propose the following change to the AML by-laws: We add, to section four of the By-laws, this sentence: "The board may also, by unanimous vote, extend the term of AML President and President-elect by one year." If any AML member would like to discuss this change, or if any AML member would like to oppose it or amend it, please come prepared for a discussion and vote on this proposal in the business meeting.

At the business meeting, we will also vote on new members of the AML Board. If any AML member would like to serve on the board, we desperately need people with the following skills: a board member who can publicize AML events and work to increase membership, a board member who can help organize a readers' conference (in conjunction with LDS Storymakers), and a board member with skills and experience as a grant-writer/fund-raiser. If you are willing to serve in any of those capacities, please contact Eric Samuelsen ericUNDERSCOREsamuelsenATbyuDOTedu or Boyd Petersen boydDOTpetersenATcomcastDOTnet prior to the Annual Meeting on March 8.
