The ALA Advisory Board supports the high-level direction and delivery of the ALA by providing vision, advocacy and advice. It provides advice to the ALA Director consistent with CSIRO’s ongoing delivery of national research infrastructure on behalf of the nation, as well as the principles guiding the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy. The Advisory Board meets three times per year and all members are appointed for two years with the possibility of extending the term.
