Today kicked off the first day of the American Association of Law Libraries (AALL) 2009 Annual Meeting. West and many of the Thomson Reuters, Legal businesses are present at the event this year, which is being held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, in Washington, D.C., through Wed. July 29.
Law librarians from across the United States, and more than 50 international attendees, come to the AALL Annual Meeting to learn about the new technologies that will help them add value to their customers’ work, learn abut industry trends and best practices, and to network with vendors and with each other. This year, as the entire legal industry has braced against the pressures of the economic downturn, “doing more with less” is a common topic of conversation.
The theme at the West booth focuses on the unique and admirable attributes that law librarians eminate — such as integrity, energy and resilience. These themes tie into a new campaign that West is launching at the show to salute the work of law librarians everywhere.
We talked about that campaign – and the importance of AALL – with Anne Ellis, senior director in Librarian Relations at West in this video interview:
AALL attendees can also visit booths for Westlaw Business, Thomson Innovation/IP Solutions, International Sales & Marketing, Westlaw CourtExpress and the Thomson Reuters Tax & Accounting business.
Over the next few days here on Legal Current, we’ll be sharing some of the news from the meeting about the sessions, events and attendees.
