Readings for the AALL Centennial Celebration

Law Library Journal Centennial Feature Articles

To commemorate the AALL Centennial that will be celebrated with a yearlong series of events and activities in 2005-06, culminating at the 2006 Annual Meeting in St. Louis, Law Library Journal has included an “AALL Centennial Feature” article in each issue beginning in Winter 2003 (Vol. 95, No. 1). The articles will continue through the completion of the “Centennial Volume” (Vol. 98) in 2006. While the focus common to each article is the history of law libraries, law librarianship, and AALL, the specific topics vary according to the interests of authors and readers. Individuals interested in contributing a “Centennial Feature” article should contact Frank G. Houdek, Editor, Law Library Journal, Southern Illinois University School of Law, Lesar Law Bldg., Mail Code 6803, Carbondale, IL 62901-6803, (618) 453-8788, houdek@siu.edu.
