Australian Legal Research

Monday, 5th October 2015 at 7:00pm till 9:00pm

Ever struggled when having to find an Australian case or piece of legislation?  Worse still, ever had to manually track a case through the courts? Then the City Legal Information Group has the session for you.  Come listen to Sue Ann Yap and Michael Green from JADE, a non-profit legal research citator service, discuss the significance of open access to law, practitioner-based research flow and being a disrupted + disruptive practitioner.

They will consider some of the big questions facing us all and give us a brief insight in to the approach being taken ‘Down Under’.  Questions such as:

  • The changing face of the Legal Librarian
  • Current awareness versus reporters: is now more important than yesterday?
  • The power of collaboration and open access to information

Networking drinks will be available afterwards for further discussion.

Date: Monday, 5th October 2015
Time: 6pm - 8:00pm
Venue: Herbert Smith Freehills LLP, Exchange House, Primrose Street, London EC2A 2EG
Cost: Free for members, £18 for non-members
(non-member’s ticket price includes CLIG membership until the end of March 2016)
