Two great resources for labor lawyers
UC Berkeley's Institute of Industrial Relations is a rich resource for labor and employment lawyers. But two features are particularly noteworthy. One is its Labor Research Portal, an extensive guide to labor resources on the Web. It inludes the IIR library's LaborBlog. The other is its Labor Contracts Database, an online clearinghouse providing access to the complete text of union contracts. Contracts are listed by state, union name and covered occupation. To my knowledge, this is the only publicly accessible Web collection of collective bargaining agreements. posted by Robert Ambrogi at 1:50 PM :: |
A site for disabled lawyers and law students
For his third-year Harvard Law School project in 2002, Carrie Griffin started the Disabled Lawyering Alliance as an online network for lawyers and law students with disabilities. The goal is to bring people together to foster mentoring relationships, professional networking and personal development. The primary way it does this is through QuickTopic discussion forums devoted to mentoring, lawyers and law students. There is also a collection of links and general information on employment and fellowships. posted by Robert Ambrogi at 7:59 PM :: |
Another battle lost in WordPerfect vs. Word?
Lawyers love to debate WordPerfect vs. Word. So what does it mean that Richard Belthoff has changed the site formerly known as "The Legal WordPerfect Page" to The Legal Word Processing Page and now covers Word along with WP? posted by Robert Ambrogi at 4:56 PM :: |
