Canadian Association of Law Libraries Webinar on Libraries and Access to Justice

The Canadian Association of Law Libraries (CALL) is hosting a webinar on Tuesday, January 31, 2017 called Libraries and Access to Justice. It starts at 1PM Eastern time:

"The Justice system has been described as in crisis. Following the release of the Action Committee on Access to Family and Civil Matters’ report in 2013 a number of initiatives across the country have been launched to address the issue. With the increase in self- represented litigants this is an issue that affects all law librarians from those who serve the public and firm librarians. Johanne Blenkin, CEO of CLBC will talk about the role of law libraries in access to justice, opportunities for law librarians and also about the LawMatters program for public libraries  that CLBC operates. Sarah McCoubrey, Access to Justice Strategist at CALIBRATE, will speak about the Ontario initiatives on A2J and collaboration with Ontario public libraries."
