SCALL is pleased to welcome AALL Executive Board Member Carol Bredemeyer to the 2009 SCALL Institute
SCALL is pleased to welcome AALL Executive Board Member Carol Bredemeyer to the 2009 SCALL Institute, “Near and Far with ADR: Exploring the Many Facets of Alternative Dispute Resolution.” This year’s Institute will be held on March 27-28, 2009 at the Embassy Suites La Quinta—Hotel and Spa in the desert community of La Quinta, east of Palm Desert in the Coachella Valley.
As Carol recently wrote, “It’s 17 degrees here with a wind chill of 4. The thought of coming to sunny California in March is helping me get through winter!Over the years, I’ve heard great things about the SCALL Institutes and I look forward to the opportunity to attend one, meet SCALL members and see long time friends.”
No doubt the sunny and warm weather expected at La Quinta will be a vast improvement over the cold, wind and snow of Kentucky winters Carol experiences as Assistant Director for Faculty Services at Salmon P. Chase College of Law, Northern Kentucky University in Highland Heights. Highland Heights is a suburban community seven miles southeast of Cincinnati, Ohio.
As an AALL Board member, Carol serves as liaison to three AALL Committees: AALLNET, Awards, and Law Library Journal and AALL Spectrum. Carol earned a B. A. degree in history in 1978 from Morehead State University and her M.S.L.S. in 1981 from the University of Kentucky. Carol began working at NKU Chase Law Library as a library assistant in 1978; and she launched her professional career in librarianship there in 1981 as a reference librarian, rising from the ranks to her current position.
Carol has been active in AALL, ORALL (Past President), SEALL, Reader Services SIS and ALL-SIS. She has authored articles for Law Library Journal and AALL Spectrum and served on and chaired several boards and committees.
We hope to see many SCALL members in attendance at the Institute. Come up and greet our distinguished guest!
