We Want Your News!
Happy New Year, CALL!
As CALL and the Bulletin move into 2025, we’d like to remind you that the Bulletin is yours–and is here for you! Do you have ideas you’d like to share? Columns you’d like to write? Let us know!
Are there changes in your life you’d like to share? We’d love to hear those as well! Please don’t hesitate to reach out to your editors. We can’t wait to hear from you!
Turning over a new leaf
Welcome to this new season of the Bulletin! While this first issue of 2024-25 includes content you have seen before, including committee reports from the 2023-24 year, we are also bringing something new: Rachel Ford’s Why think about web accessibility will get us started with something new and exciting.
And we’d like to bring you more new and exciting materials throughout this Bulletin year! Do you have an idea for a column? Is there a topic you’d like to see discussed in the Bulletin? Are you interested in reviewing library-related materials, or in exploring all the oddities in popular culture depictions of legal work? Let us know–we would love to hear from you! Email Bulletin editors Caitlin and Stacia at the links on the left sidebar. We look forward to hearing from you.
