The U of MN Law Library got something that should be very useful for survivors of crimes around February 5, 2008. This was a link to a victim assistance directory from their web-site.

I think that they objected most to my basing my concerns on this issue on personal experiences of a murder of my English teacher's daughter Michelle M., that occurred on my birthday of February 24 in 1976 in Reno, Nevada. They attacked my mental health in a very sophisticated manner when I brought this niche up just in a personal memo saying that I wanted to do something about this problem which I had noticed in Nevada libraries from February 1976 onward. I talked about this cause and the U of MN Law School/Library's putting my mental health at issue-- for writing a personal memo about my experiences-- while at the University of California SF Medical School while in a study on stress on the unemployed. I was subject 6 1 3. I have been telling my story since 1993 using these numbers of 2 2 4 and 6 1 3.

Survivors of crimes did have access though if they talked about their experiences with a law librarian at the U of MN Law Library. The problem I saw was that very few people who have been a victim of many types of crimes are going to be honest about these experiences with a reference librarian in a law library type setting. Some will, but many probably would not.

I came across various law students while I was at the U of MN who had been victims of various crimes like rape, sexual assault, etc. and they seemed to keep this to themselves quite a bit.
