Episode 075: Recruiting Lawyers and Librarians to Law Librarianship
Wednesday, November 7, 2007
Playing time: 50:26

This is a talk I gave at the Libraries Without Borders conference in Toronto, on Thursday, October 18, 2007. I'm concerned that we may be overselling the profession--there is certainly a demand for qualified law librarians, but how much is that demand, and what really constitutes "qualified"? With the rising costs of legal education, how long can we continue to expect entry-level academic law librarians to have JD degrees?

In August 2005, York University Law Professor Susan Drummond was informed that she owed $12,000 to Rogers Wireless for phone calls made from her stolen phone. Not only did Professor Drummond fight back, she turned it into a study of the legal system and built a website about it. Here Susan talks with me about her use of online consumer advocacy and her adventures in the Ontario small claims court.

Episode 072: The Yirka Question
Tuesday, June 12, 2007
Playing time: 28:43

Guest: Carl Yirka, Director of the Julien and Virginia Cornell Library and Professor of Law, Vermont Law School. I speak with Carl about making hard decisions: what traditional library services should we stop doing, so that we can do other things that are a better fit with our institutional priorities?

Atul Gawande, "The Bell Curve," New Yorker, December 6, 2004; Better: A Surgeon's Notes on Performance (2007).

Email from Carl Yirka to lawlibdir listserv, May 31, 2007:

Greetings from Vermont:

I'm writing a report for my Deans and am discussing some of the things we have consciously stopped doing, or are doing less than we have in the past.

One of the questions we try to ask is: what can we stop doing, in order to do other higher priority items? After I once asked this question at a faculty meeting, the former CFO began to call this "the Yirka question"... not to honor me in any way, but so he could ask the question without anyone getting angry at him. It is of course the sort of question that raises issues of turf.

Here's a brief list of what we have stopped doing:

We are not binding law journals that appear in HeinOnline;
we are collecting less government documents;
less actively collecting of archival materials;
not offering ref service from the Ref Desk - now offered from our offices;
not sending "of interest" notices to (mostly) faculty for new books;
not doing "prepare to practice/research review" research workshops previously done at the end of spring term;
faculty research workshops - not done for a few years;
not having 4 librarians each teach 2 sections of Legal Research. Now we have 3 teaching 3;
we've cut back on the number of research classes for MSEL (Master of Science in Environmental Law) students taught by a librarian. --The writing instructor incorporated basic legal research into the Writing classes, and a librarian introduced them to our subscription databases and the Free Environmental Sites Guide;
not administering CALI - now administered by Academic Success office;
not assisting faculty with TWEN and PowerPoint - the faculty administrative assistants are doing that;

In recent conversation with my sister, who is a librarian in a special library, she told me they no longer check in periodicals. After getting over the shock of that, I began to wonder whether we are too constrained in what we feel we must do.

So, I am curious as to what your libraries have stopped doing.

Best regards,

Carl

Email from Carl Yirka to lawlibdir listserv, June 1, 2007:

Several of you have asked 1) why are you stopping these things, and 2) what are we now doing that is more important than the services we have discontinued?

We made the stop decisions consciously. In part we were short staffed, and were doing a work redesign, so wanted to stop doing things that we felt were not worth it. We were not doing these things badly, but in spite of doing them well no one seemed to care whether we were doing these things. Penny Hazelton pointed out to me that one of Don Dunn's favorite questions is, "What are you doing well that you don't need to do at all?"

Our Dean had not specifically asked us to do this exercise; I'm trying to be ahead of the curve.

We are not yet at the point of doing the new services. As part of our redesign we have hired a new Lawyer/Librarian starting 2 July, and are moving a librarian from collection development to a second lawyer/librarian position this summer. We will soon be in the market for an librarian for collection development and technology; we'll be interviewing at AALL I trust.

Here's a bit of background explaining how we got here.

I have heard from many of you that your deans feel that your libraries are doing a good job, that you run a good library, but that in spite of that deans are cutting staffing and book budgets, and taking library space for other purposes.

I have not heard it described quite this brusquely, but the conversation I imagine go something like this:
Dean to Library Director: "The library is doing a good job for the budget you have; but what can you do if I cut your budget by 10%.... 20%..... 30%..... I know, I know.. Library directors for decades have made the claim that budgets must get bigger.. publishers charge more, we can't control that... new technologies cost a lot.... you need lots of staff to do the library stuff....the library needs more space...you never want to get rid of anything... Let's try something different. Cut the budget, do your best on collection and services, and let me tell you when we reach a level that hurts the institution."

In other words, I think some deans don't value what we have been doing, (despite our efforts to educate deans) or to put it a different way - what we have been doing is not in synch with institutional priorities. If they were, deans would be putting more money toward libraries. They seem to find money for their priorities.

So what institutional priorities are there that the Library might take on?

The new goal that we have identified is that the Library needs to do more to help faculty be more productive scholars. Yes... that means to help them publish more. Clearly this is an institutional goal, and one that is on the margin of running a good library. Providing the book and electronic materials for faculty to do their research is a traditional library goal;, we are talking about doing something more.

I've been surveying our faculty asking what sort of things they would like the Library to do in order for them to be more productive scholars. I've said that at this point I can't make any firm commitments; but I want them to "dream no small dreams."

I realize that this is a bit scary. I realize that the things faculty might want to outsource to the library are those things that are not working at all, or are not working well. That's the way life is: the opportunities lie where things are not going well.

There are risks here. Will I get their hopes up for things we can't produce? Will some of their hopes be far outside the scope of traditional library work? (I have heard of one law library that now supervises faculty secretaries, and makes faculty travel arrangements). Might we become glorified (or unglorified) research assistants or secretaries? I think the benefits outweigh the risks. Doing merely the more traditional library goals seems to me a recipe for slow death.

I provide you here with the unedited list of faculty desires. Some of these things we already do, but perhaps not to the level faculty would like, or they don't realize we have done them. Some items are not clearly keyed to faculty scholarly productivity. You will note that "footnotes" comes up more than once.

Suggestions so far:

understand the rankings of law reviews, and which law review would be the best place to submit articles of on various topics
Draft the footnotes; draft some of the footnotes;
write the complex research footnotes: e.g determine the cites to similar statutes in the other 49 states.
review drafts of faculty articles and determine whether there are better footnotes.
Research Fellows* have a research assistant pool in library supervised by librarians; have librarians do the paperwork and training of research assistants;
librarians review research assistant's work product
have electronic feeds come to a Librarian, and only forward the most relevant to the faculty member.
Create complete SSRN files for faculty, include all historical literature as well
create a portal for every upper level class whether faculty ask for it or not.
Current awareness services: CLIP, RSS feeds, Google reader
take over responsibility for plagiarism reviews of student papers
Librarians as consultants on faculty web page: cv creation; click thru to articles, SSRN
Word/Powerpoint expertise & creation
Footnotes: do them? Clean them up? Know blue book well.
supplement the work of the Communications office: understand the publishers, book, periodical, newspaper culture well enough to act as a consultant for faculty considering unique publication places: literary agent for the faculty
Understand the pecking order of law reviews better, especially for interdisciplinary journals
Understand the timing and template issues for law journal publication
Which law reviews take unsolicited manuscripts
Content creators for blogs
Liaison lunch with faculty member every semester; individual and group lunch
Create on demand bibliographies for faculty members
Manage faculty contact with other libraries: (Several faculty members pay for privileges to use Dartmouth College Library) renew books, etc.
Librarian *embedded* near where faculty work
Provide competitive intelligence: how do other law schools do X
Provide lunch table consults in the faculty dining area
Provide more Science databases
Clean up blue book sites
Law review rankings
Blogs; act as content creators for blogs
Train RAs to do social science research & govdocs research
Additional classroom support: review and prep video clips
Develop better video collection
Develop course reserves for classes
become the experts for Citation 9
Play a role in the hierarchy between faculty and RA: mid level associate
Develop brief bank for clinic

Perhaps you think this is completely crazy, or perhaps you already do all this. I would enjoy your comments. If nothing else, I've got down a rough draft that will help me write my memo.
best regards,
Carl

Episode 070: Mediation, Collaborative Family Law, and Fur Coats
Wednesday, May 23, 2007
Playing time: 49:14

Linda W. Chodos joins me for another lunchcast from Byblos Authentic Lebanese Restaurant in Getzville, NY. Ms. Chodos . A 1993 graduate of the University at Buffalo Law School practicing family law in Hamburg, New York, Ms. Chodos is a leader in promoting mediation and collaborative family law in western New York. Ms. Chodos is also Director of Western New York Collaborative Law Professionals, Ltd. and a member of International Academy of Collaborative Professionals (IACP).

From Linda's website:

Mediation has been found to benefit people with some or all of the following concerns:

I know what is best for me and my family. I don't want the courts to decide for me.
I am concerned about the high cost of a divorce.
I cannot communicate with my spouse.
I am concerned that my children will suffer.
I am not sure what constitutes a fair agreement.
I need more information about what my financial situation will be
following the divorce.
I need good and accurate legal information.
I need a plan that provides me with flexibility to deal with future issues that may arise.
I don't want to "fight it out" in the courts now or after the divorce.

Collaborative law is a relatively new alternative for achieving a fair settlement in a separation or divorce. In collaborative law, both parties retain separate, specially trained lawyers, whose only job is to help them settle the case. If the process does not succeed, the lawyers must withdraw and cannot go on to represent their clients against the other party in court. All participants agree to work together respectfully, honestly, and in good faith to try to find solutions to both parties' legitimate needs. Four creative minds work together to devise individualized settlement scenarios. Neither party can seek court intervention during the collaborative law process.

Episode 067: Drinking Liberally with Kim and Dan

Episode 067: Drinking Liberally with Kim and Dan
Sunday, April 29, 2007
Playing time: 21:40

My guests this week are Kim Stahler and Dan Sauder, the co-organizers and co-hosts of Drinking Liberally Reading, the Reading, Pennsylvania chapter of Drinking Liberally. Drinking Liberally is "an informal, inclusive progressive social group. Raise your spirits while you raise your glass, and share ideas while you share a pitcher. Drinking Liberally gives like-minded, left-leaning individuals a place to talk politics. You don't need to be a policy expert and this isn't a book club - just come and learn from peers, trade jokes, vent frustration and hang out in an environment where it's not taboo to talk politics. Bars are democratic spaces - you talk to strangers, you share booths, you feel the bond of common ground. Bring democratic discourse to your local democratic space - build democracy one drink at a time. While drinking liberally, always remember to drink responsibly, and make liberal use of designated drivers. Drinking and driving is reckless and irresponsible, like a neocon war or corporatist tax cut. Liberals, don't do it."

Episode 065: David M. Crane on War Crimes and Impunity
Monday, April 9, 2007
Playing time: 30:47

David M. Crane was appointed Distinguished Professor of Practice at Syracuse University College of Law in 2006. Prior to joining the College of Law, he was the Chief Prosecutor of the Special Court for Sierra Leone, an international war crimes tribunal, appointed to that position by the Secretary General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan, on 19 April 2002. With the rank of Undersecretary General, Professor Crane's mandate was to prosecute those who bear the greatest responsibility for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and other serious violations of international human rights committed during the civil war in Sierra Leone during the 1990s. Professor Crane was the first American since Justice Robert Jackson and Telford Taylor at Nuremberg, in 1945, to be the Chief Prosecutor of an international war crimes tribunal.

Professor Crane served over 30 years in the federal government of the United States, mainly with the Department of Defense. Appointed to the Senior Executive Service of the United States in 1997, Professor Crane has held numerous key positions during his three decades of public service, including Director of the Office of Intelligence Review, Assistant General Counsel of the Defense Intelligence Agency, and Waldemar A. Solf Professor of International Law at the United States Army Judge Advocate General's School. He has over 20 years of experience as an officer and lawyer in the United States Army.

Professor Crane holds a Doctorate of Law degree from Syracuse University, a Masters of Arts Degree in African Studies and a Bachelor of General Studies in History, summa cum laude, from Ohio University.

Impunity Watch: "The Impunity Watch blog is intended to provide unbiased, objective reporting on impunity issues throughout the world. An open forum will be created to allow communication among individuals. People on the ground in the affected areas can use our blog as a means of casting a light on perceived injustices. Critical articles debating impunity issues will also be collected from academic, professional, and student authors. As a result, Impunity Watch will be a forum in which human rights issues and events will be examined from both a grassroots as well as an academic perspective."

Podcamp Toronto: Free Podcasting "Unconference" Aims to Teach Newbies How to Podcast

Thu, 1 Feb 2007 15:47:00 GMT

I'm pleased to share this item with all of you: I hope to see some of you in Toronto in a few weeks!

(Toronto, ON) â Podcamp Toronto (www.podcamptoronto.org), a 2-day unconference which will be held at Ryerson University on February 24-25, 2007, will teach people how to plan, produce and publish a podcast. Attendance is free.

A podcast is a multimedia file thatâs syndicated over the Internet. Similar to an Internet radio program, podcasting allows people to download audio or video content when they want to view or listen to it.

âBoth hobbyist and companies are using podcasts to communicate with fans or clients,â says Leesa Barnes, one of the organizers behind Podcamp Toronto. âThereâs a guy who uses his podcast to teach people how to knit and thereâs a large corporation that uses their podcast to give end users tips on how to maintain their computers.â

The very first Podcamp was held in Boston in September 2006. It was born out of the desire to share information about audio and video podcasting and related subjects. Podcamp Toronto is a 100% free, volunteer-driven, sponsor-supported event. Otherwise known as an unconference, Podcamp Toronto focuses primarily on allowing people to share ideas, interact with each other and learn in an open environment.

âUsing the unconference method means that attendees will learn from those in the trenches, the very people who are producing podcasts on a day to day basis,â says Barnes. âWhether youâre a seasoned podcaster or someone whoâs just curious about this new medium, Podcamp Toronto will allow you to learn at your own pace.â

Sessions includes Interviewing Techniques, Video Podcasting for the Average Joe, Podcasting 101, 7 Ways to Monetize Your Podcast, How to Create Hollywood Effects from Your Living Room and Podcasting in Public Interest. There are a number of panel discussions, including Will Podcasting Kill Radio, Using Podcasting in Secondary Schools and Whatâs Hot in Marketing Your Podcast. The hosts of 2 of Canada's most listened to podcasts - In Over Your Head and Galacticast - will be on hand to answer questions about replicating their success. These are just a sample of the 25+ sessions and panels being offered.

A blog is updated almost daily with news about Podcamp Toronto. Sponsors include Scotiabank, the first Canadian bank to produce a podcast called The Money Clip and BabyTel, a voice-over IP company.

Welcome to the Mahapodcast

Tue, 2 Jan 2007 02:24:00 GMT

Barbara O'Brien is the author of The Mahablog, one of the leading left/progressive blogs, and is known for her insightful and well-reasoned analysis. Now she has extended her efforts into podcasting, with--so far--a couple of short and very listenable episodes. Her first comment was a reflection on the legacy of the late President Gerald Ford. In this week's entry, Old Tapes for the New Year, she talks about how each generation reacts to its own understandings--or misunderstandings--of the lessons of the previous war. If you're interested in an articulate left voice in podcasting, add The Mahablog to your podcatcher.

Clarence Darrow, portrayed by actor Gary Anderson
Jeremy Colby (Webster Szanyi LLP; blogger, A Buffalo Lawyer) on the American Inns of Court

On Wednesday, October 11, Clarence Darrow visited the University at Buffalo Law School. Actually, he was portrayed by actor Gary L. Anderson in a one-man play called "Clarence Darrow: The Search for Justice." This was an event sponsored by the Charles S. Desmond Chapter of the American Inns of Court. No, I didn't know anything about the American Inns of Court either, so I interviewed Jeremy Colby, Secretary of the Desmond chapter, to learn more about the Inns of Court.

Episode 042: The Lost Episode

Fri, 25 Aug 2006 17:36:00 GMT

I have no idea how this happened, but apparently when I uploaded the MP3 for Episode 042 last night, it somehow got truncated. What should have been a 53 minute episode cut out just before the 13 minute mark. The bulk of the interview with Connie Crosby, and the entire interview with Hollie White, was lost.

To make matters worse, I made the mistake of cleaning up what I thought were unneeded files, so all of my original recordings and GarageBand versions of Episode 042 were lost too.

I apologize, most of all to Connie and Hollie, who took time out of their busy schedules to talk with me. I promise to bring both of them back soon, and to keep my draft files until I know the upload worked correctly.
