On January 27, 2016 the CLA membership voted to dissolve the organization and support the creation of a new unified national library advocacy organization, the Canadian Federation of Library Associations/Fédération canadienne des associations de bibliothèques (CFLA/FCAB). Since then CLA has been preparing for dissolution and to close its doors towards the end of June 2016.
