Guides for Law Firm Library Intranets and Strategic Plans

The Private Law Librarians and Information Professionals – Special Interest Section (PLLIP) of the American Association of Law Libraries has released two new resource guides on strategic planning and intranets for law firm libraries.

They are:

• Strategic Planning for Law Firm Libraries : it provides a step-by-step outline for the strategic planning process which can be used as a tutorial for newer managers and a checklist for more experienced professionals.
• Law Firm Library Intranets: topics include selection and design, collaboration, project justification, content creation, Sharepoint tools, alternatives to intranets, extranets and suggestions for continuous improvement.
