Had a big victory Tuesday February 5, 2008 in my massive 17 year + project of making crime victim information more accessible and visible through the internet. Been trying to make this happen for a long time.
Just checked this link at the U of MN Law Library and its goes though to useful information for crime victims and others interested in this area.
The U of MN Law School is my alma mater and where I worked (1988-1991) cataloging all the computer files on WESTLAW as well as on the reference desk and cataloging foreign language stuff.

This is important as some of the Minnesota public libraries
http://www.publiclibraries.com/minnesota.htm, I had checked last summer only had a link to the U of MN Law Library as their source for legal information in MN.
Now, if I could just get Marion and Sumter County Library Systems to make links to the Florida Victim Services Directory
http://myfloridalegal.com/directory. Have to often go back and check if library systems in FL still have the links they had put up due to my many suggestions from 2000 onward for a link to the FL Victim Services Directory as they have a tendency to disappear. Like with the Clearwater Library System that had a link for crime victims in 2006 and does not seem to have one--
