Legal Information & Technology SSRN eJournal Offers Law Library Scholarship
Happy Birthday to the Legal Information & Technology eJournal which just concluded its fifth year. This SSRN eJournal, curated by Randy Diamond and Lee Peoples, provides a platform for the dissemination of law library scholarship.
Beginning this year, the journal, which has heretofore been sponsored by the Academic Law Libraries Special Interest Section of the American Association of Law Libraries and the Mid-America Association of Law Libraries, will be self-sustaining.
I subscribe to this journal and frequently find many interesting and useful articles. Institutional and individual subscription information is available at http://www.ssrn.com/en/index.cfm/subscribe/. Note that many university departments and other institutions have purchased site subscriptions covering all various eJournals.
