The Accidental Law Librarian

Rate this book
Where can I find the case Simpson v. Satterfield? What are the laws in Nevada on gun ownership? Can you help me apply for a business license? How do I copyright my name? Questions like these make a new law librarian s head spin. The truth is, all librarians are apt to get legal questions, and most struggle to respond. Collection development, too, is tricky if you seldom work with legal publishers.

As the law touches more and more of our daily lives while lawyers price their services out of the average person s range, the public increasingly turns to libraries for answers. Where can librarians turn? Okay, that one s easy to Anthony Aycock s The Accidental Law Librarian.

It is a great book if you are new to the field. it might be a little too basic for those who have been in libraries or a law related field. I highly recommend it as a starting place if you are thinking about going into law libraries. The book is well written and very engaging.
