The AALL Electronic Legal Information Access and Citation Committee
updated the original state summaries to determine how much progress
states have made since AALL published its 2007 report. The updates show
that a number of states have followed through on concerns AALL raised in
the original report by adding official and authentic notations to their
legal information. One of the most significant changes noted in the
2009-10 update is the addition of disclaimers to many state Web sites
regarding authentication and official format of the information online.
However, the report also highlights another troubling trend: a growing
number of states are eliminating their print legal publications in favor
of online-only without guaranteeing digital authentication or permanent
public access.
