Current Awareness - Keeping Up With Legal Info

Ted Tjaden over at Slaw, the "co-operative weblog about Canadian legal research and IT", writes about his current awareness techniques for legal researchers.

He breaks things down into:

• Emails/Listservs
• Websites
• Legal Newspapers/magazine/TOCs in print

I would add: reading the regular daily newspapers. I am amazed at how many major stories have a legal angle, are about the law, the courts, legislative proposals, the Charter of Rights, the constitution, etc.
