President's Welcome
The Association aims to promote a network for Australian law librarians, provide forums for continuing education, advocate on behalf of the interests of law libraries and promote access to legal information within the wider community.
I look forward to working alongside the National Executive Committee and the membership to progress our key objectives and to build upon the achievements driven by John Botherway, previous President and the Committee, over the past 12 months. The next 12 months is an exciting time for the Association where we will engage in online professional development programs, continue to develop the national membership model, establish a framework to enhance sharing and exchange of ideas and foster industry partnerships of mutual benefit.
The 2010 Conference will be a jointly held conference with ALLA and NZLLA. Petal Kinder is the Conference Convenor and is delighted to announce the 2010 conference will be held in Melbourne.
Want to know more about your Association? Then you must read “Setting a Precedent: The Evolution of the Australian Law Librarians’ Association 1969-2009” by Donald Barker, Fiona Brown and Graeme Johanson which was launched at the 2009 Conference Dinner. Copies of the book are available from LexisNexis for $25.00 with many thanks to Petal Kinder, James Butler and John Botherway for spending too many late nights editing the book.
Kind regards, Leanne
