Section 501c6 organizations are taxed only on income classified as unrelated business income. The ALA APA did not have any unrelated business income for the years ended August 31 2024 or 2023. Unrelated business income is taxed in accordance with federal and state income tax regulations. The tax years ended 2021 2022 and 2023 are still open to audit for both federal and state purposes. Based on the evaluation of the ALA APAs tax positions management believes all positions taken would be upheld under an examination; therefore no provision for the effects of uncertain tax positions has been recorded for the years ended August 31 2024 or 2023. true true false Tracie Hall Executive Director thru October 2023 0 253178 0 0 0 159086 0 17100 0 8191 0 437555 0 0 Melissa Walling Interim Senior Associate Executive Director 0 205658 0 0 0 0 0 12989 0 9969 0 228616 0 0 Alan Inouye Interim Associate Executive Director thru May 2025 0 203510 0 0 0 0 0 14393 0 9612 0 227515 0 0 Lorelle Hopkins Associate Executive Director 0 197923 0 0 0 0 0 14028 0 9969 0 221920 0 0 Dina Tsourdinis Chief Financial Officer 0 198379 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 812 0 199191 0 0 Rebecca Headrick Chief Information Technology Officer 0 185788 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 7099 0 192887 0 0 Shakir Akbari Director of Enterprise Applications 0 154412 0 0 0 0 0 11037 0 20093 0 185542 0 0 George Kendall Senior Director ALA Publishing and Media 0 160146 0 0 0 0 0 11310 0 9969 0 181425 0 0 Denise Moritz Director of Financial Reporting and Compliance 0 153065 0 0 0 0 0 10805 0 13393 0 177263 0 0 Mary Mackay Former Interim Senior Associate Executive Director 0 106181 0 0 0 0 0 16427 0 7583 0 130191 0 0 Part I | PartandLinenumber:,Explanation:|Part I Line 3,The compensation levels for the American Library Association's Executive Director, key employees and all other staff are approved by the American Library Association's Executive Board during the annual budget process.
