American law libraries discover Canada
The March 2005 issue of the AALL Spectrum (the publication of the American Association of Law Libraries) is devoted to Canada.
For a brief intro to legal Canadiana, read Ted Tjaden's article "Canadian Top 40: Things You Need to Know About Canada's Legal System". And the president of the Canadian Association of Law Libraries, Jeannine Miller, outlines the history of the AALL's northern sister organization.
As the editorial of the issue states:
"Our focus this month is Canada, and some might argue it's about time. Canada is our neighbor and a very important ally. Unfortunately many Americans, probably most Americans, know little about Canada..., and many of us often forget that its' even there. This issue of Spectrum hopes to change that, at least in some small way."
