The Legal History and
Rare Books SIS was established in 1989 at the AALL Annual Meeting in
Reno, Nevada. Its purpose is to promote the study and appreciation of
legal history and rare books among members of the profession. To that
end, the SIS hopes to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and
information concerning all aspects of these two different yet
interconnected subjects. The organization publishes a newsletter and sponsors speakers and programs on both legal history and
rare books at the Annual Meeting. In the hopes of attracting as wide
an audience as possible, the SIS encourages vendors and book dealers
to join the group.
