Lawyers for Libraries institutes are open to licensed, practicing attorneys retained to represent or advise libraries on legal issues. Attorneys are eligible for Continuing Legal Education credits for attendance. Library trustees or board members who are responsible for establishing library policy also may attend. Librarians may attend (and are encouraged to attend) if they are accompanied by a library attorney.
Please note: the deadline to reserve a discount-rate hotel room at the Tampa DoubleTree Guest Suites (where the institute will be held) is October 22. Click here for more information about hotel and travel for the two institutes.
Over its 11 years of existence, ALA’s Lawyers for Libraries has built a nationwide network of attorneys committed to the defense of the First Amendment freedom to read and the application of constitutional law to library policies, principles, and problems.
