The Kentucky Council on Archives is governed by a six-member Administrative Board. Five members of the Board are chosen for two-year terms by election by the general membership. Elections are held at the spring meeting each year. Three slots are filled one year, and the remaining two the following year. The Board elects a chairperson from its membership. As a result of a constitutional change in 2002, a vice-chair/chair-elect is also chosen from the Board membership. The chair’s immediate predecessor is the sixth member of the Board, serving in an ex officio capacity.
Elections were held at the 2009 spring meeting on May 8 at the Loretto Archives in Nerinx. Missy O'Brien of The Data Vault has been elected chair for the 2009-2010 term. Jackie Couture of Eastern Kentucky University has been elected Vice Chair.
