Legal information questions in the public library setting
Library 2.011 Worldwide Virtual Conference

Abstract
The evolving role of the public reference librarian includes handling a wide range of questions about legal information. In addition, the economic climate has dramatically increased demand for self-help legal information. The session will cover topics such as:
- issues surrounding “legal information” vs. “legal advice”;
- free--and trustworthy--online sources of legal information;
- best practices and searching shortcuts for common legal questions.
