About Lady Lake PD., look at the the FL Victim Services Directory. This should give you information. http://myfloridalegal.com/vicdirect.nsf/Fifth%20Judicial%20Circuit!OpenView

I also have a victim advocate e-mail friend whom I have been e-mailing for a few years. She is fairly close. I will PM you with her e-mail address.

As to the Bar, this is an excuse but I was a little upset about the mental health comments made from, no less, a fellow U of MN Law School Classmate (Class of 1989) back in 1991 when I was studying for the MN Bar and messed up on one of my bar exam questions. I got a 251 when I needed a 260 to pass. I know that sounds lame but I was extremely worried about employment references back in 1991-- with good reason it looks like-- when my mental health was put in issue rather than problems with there being practical materials for victims at the U of MN Law Library. That was my 2nd time attempting the Bar exam. I did not think passing the bar was all that essential in 1990 to being a law librarian.

Usually law librarians do not have to have lawyer certification because we are not allowed to give legal advice when helping library users. It helps to have passed a bar but it is not usually required.
