2) Participants will be able to acquire the tools for presenting information to a seasoned group of attorneys, helping them adapt to a changing mix of legal resources.
As more and more resources move online, many experienced attorneys wonder: When should you still use print resources, and when should you use electronic ones? Are there best practices for when to use each in the research process? Librarians have an opportunity to help these attorneys, many of whom graduated from law school before the digital revolution, by hosting a review of how to use print and online resources together in a strategic way to accomplish research goals. Learn about one law firm’s experience in presenting cross-platform research training to a mixed-generation group of attorneys, and review the best practices they developed for when to use each kind of resource. You’ll also get tips on how to present information to an experienced audience of professionals from a vendor representative.
