By Alan Kilpatrick, Reference Librarian
Online Legal Resources in the Age of Covid-19 (CPD 282)
Thu, Jun 18, 2020 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM CST
Registration Fees: Absolutely Free!
While your physical Law Society library locations might be closed due to coronavirus, rest assured you still have access to one of Canada’s leading online legal resource collections. As a Saskatchewan member, you can access an outstanding online law library right on your computer’s desktop, from anywhere in the world, simply by logging into the Members’ Resource Section. We’re all dealing with the challenges of working and practicing law remotely during this unusual time. Don’t let legal resources add to that challenge.
Our free webinar will ensure you get the most out of our online resources. Simply put, this is a CPD opportunity you can’t afford to miss. Bearded librarian duo, Ken Fox and Alan Kilpatrick, will focus on the resources that best compensate for the loss of access to our print resources. You’ll be surprised at how many texts of equivalent scope are available online in:
- The Canadian Encyclopedic Digest (CED) on Westlaw Next
- Irwin Law’s Des Libris ebook collection
- Emond ebooks
- Irwin Law ebooks on vLex Canada
We’ll demonstrate the best ways to locate the text you need, search and navigate to find the most relevant material, and download documents to your cloud or hard drive.
This free webinar qualifies for 1 CPD Hour. Register here!
