Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Line 7A

“Election of members and their rights - board of directors is elected by the membership. Bylaws cover elections. Proxies, containing provisions for write-in candidates, shall be mailed to members at least 45 days prior to the annual meeting. Members may vote at the meeting or by proxy. Proxies must be returned no later than 10 days prior to the meeting.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 7B

“Decisions subject to approval by members - board decisions are not usually subject to approval by the members. Membership can be surveyed regarding association matters for input if deemed necessary. Any change to bylaws would need full membership approval. Board activities are regularly reported in the association weekly newsletter.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 11B

“Organizations process to review form 990 - before filing with the irs, the completed form 990 is reviewed by the executive director of great lakes independent booksellers association.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12C

“Enforcement of conflicts policy - conflict of interest issues are reviewed during the board of directors nomination process. In addition, each board member has an orientation meeting prior to their first meeting. All policies are reviewed during this session. Board members are asked at that time if there are any conflict of interest issues. Further, they are asked to report if any changes occur in that status.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15A

“Compensation process for top official - compensation is outlined in an employment contract, reviewed annually. The contract is approved by a committee appointed by the current board president. Future contract determination includes a performance evaluation.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 19
