Fall 2021 Meeting Planning Committee
Tag: Fall meeting
Save the Date!
We are excited to announce, the LLNE Fall Conference, will be held November 12th online.
Entitled, [In}accessible Justice: Innovation, Technology, and Solutions, it will focus on the intersection of technology and access to justice and explore ways that technology can help to bridge the justice gap. The day will begin with speakers from the National Center for State Courts defining the justice gap and discussing existing approaches to address it. The following panels will explore ways technology can improve access to legal assistance, information, and institutions. Speakers from technology firms, nonprofits, law firms, law schools, courts, and bar associations will discuss their initiatives and how they have used technology to address an identified need.
A lot of research and location scouting was done to find a COVID safe location for the Fall 2021 meeting. Sadly, after monitoring health recommendations and local and regional COVID-19 developments, it was decided to not hold an in person meeting.
Many more details and registration are coming soon on the conference website!
We look forward to seeing you there!!! -Nicole Dyszlewski, Jessica Almeida, Kaitlin Connolly, Danielle Lamontagne, Joshua LaPorte, Jessica Panella, Anne Rajotte, and Michael VanderHeijden
Save the Date for the LLNE & SNELLA Fall 2020 Virtual Conference
Participants of the virtual conference will come away with an increased ability to:
• Address their own personal biases
• Recognize biases within their communities, law libraries, and collections
• Identify potential ways in which libraries can eliminate voter suppression
• Discuss potential solutions on how law libraries can continue these conversations at their own institutions
More information on session topics, speakers, and registration will be coming in the weeks to come. In the meantime, save the date!

Call for submissions: Fall 2018 Meeting, Thursday, Dec. 6, 2018
We are taking things online this fall, and hosting our fall meeting as a webinar, titled: “Failures to Fixes: How you took an L, and turned it into a W”
Thank you for your interest in submitting a proposal for the fall 2018 LLNE meeting. The LLNE Education Directors, Danitta Wong and Shira Megerman, are looking for speakers from all libraries in all departments. Libraries today move at a fast pace, and trying to keep current does not always work. Let us know about your experience in failure, and how you worked to not fall into a pattern of repeat mistakes. We welcome educational and informative proposals that will help others learn from what worked and did not work for you, and we are especially interested in proposals that developed expanded and innovative current practices out of your failed attempts. The overall program will result in a diverse array of presenters and perspectives, from firm, court, and academic libraries, and all departments therein (collection services, access services, and research services), submissions permitting.
Presentations should be 40 minutes long, with 10 minutes for Q&A from the online forum.
Proposals must be submitted to both Danitta and Shira by 5:00pm, Oct. 26, 2018. Presenters will be notified on Nov. 2, 2018 of their selection.
Your submission must include the following:
- Submission title
- Names, affiliations, and email addresses of presenters
- Description of session, or abstract (250-500 words max): Please include two or three takeaways, learning objectives, or questions for attendees.
