Join us next Thursday, January 22, for an Orientation to Law Library Collections webinar. The Orientation to Law Library Collections (OLLC) Webinar is designed for patrons familiar with legal research who would like an introduction to the collections and services specific to the Law Library of Congress. It will cover digital resources available through the Law Library’s website, as well as those available onsite.

This OLLC Webinar will feature a special appearance by librarians who assist with the State Library of Pennsylvania's Law Collection as part of the State Law Libraries Outreach Project. The purpose of the State Law Libraries Outreach Project is to strengthen the ties between the Law Library of Congress and state law libraries by sharing information about our collections, products, and services with the public. This project involves providing a guest spot for state law librarians, or their designees, to discuss the collections and services they offer during our OLLC Webinars.
