What's New for Law Librarians
Our AALL Town Hall program was very well received once again this year, and many of you asked for documentation. West's 2008 white paper "
Partnership and Solutions for Preparing Job-Ready Attorneys" continues the discussion from our 2007 white paper "
Research Skills for Lawyers and Law Students" which documented the gap between desired and actual research skills among new associates. The session was taped and we will post a link to it soon.
Part of the Town Hall included a
video interview with West key author Arthur Miller.
