Posted By: Vanessa Castillo Whether a brief but painful aberration or a whole new world for law firms, the economic events of the past year have been cataclysmic for the legal community. In order to understand the implications for firm libraries and librarians, it is important to understand the business side of law firms and how administrators view the library.
Join Barry Strauss as he shares his insight on what it takes to be successful in the new law firm reality. A panel of firm librarians will ask Strauss specific questions to get to the heart of the issues. Webinar participants will also have an opportunity to contribute questions during the session.
Participants will build knowledge and understanding in the areas of law firm business models, law firm administrative realities, and how administrators view the library. Participants will gain a better understanding of the business side of law firms and learn how to better position themselves and their services in the new law firm reality.

Barry Strauss is the Executive Director of Wiley Rein LLP, a law firm in Washington, DC and occasional adjunct on the subject of business at University of Maryland. Barry is also a member of the Association of Legal Administrator's Large Firm Administrators Caucus Steering Committee.
