The Hippest Law Librarian on the Block

Posted on September 15, 2008 by Kate Bladow

I've always been a big fan of librarians. When I was younger, they would let me wander aimlessly through the stacks at Mayville State University, and they never said a word when I checked out a huge pile of books at the end of the day. However, I never necessarily thought of them as hip. (Note: I blame this on general librarian stereotypes, and the fact that to children of a certain age, adults are never hip.)

Last week at the Court Solutions Conference, I met a librarian that you couldn't help but call hip. Laureen Adams, from the Dougherty County Law Library, has taken the time to podcast so that the public has access to understandable legal information. Given the fact that she is the only staff person and is responsible for everything from watering the plants to reshelving books to helping patrons, this shows how dedicated she is and that she's thinking about how to incorporate new methods for providing the public with library services. Go, Laureen! - K

... in and out of interesting websites, I noted an article about an outstanding law librarian at techno.la. I popped into the article and found a link to the Dougherty County Law Library in Georgia. At first glance it may appear to be similar to many other library websites...
