I probably would have been booted as soon as I started talking about ,y experiences with law librarians and it is very hard for me not to get emotional when telling these facts.
In 2009, at the Federal Court in Ocala for Jury Duty, the Judge has challenged me because he seemed to think I was not giving the truth and everything but the truth in my responses to questions. How can anyone put a lifetime of experiences into a pithy sentence? |

This is about my 224 613 Project which I started about January 1991 while still working at the University of Minnesota Law Library one of the biggest in the country and even the world back in 1991. And that had the Law Librarian of Congress, M. Kathleen Price, as its previous Law Library Director and me who had recently finished cataloging all the computer files on WESTLAW for what was supposed to be a very important development for accessing legal computer files from libraries. This was through knowledge of what was available on WESTLAW as described in cataloging files I had written using guidelines set out by a group of law librarians from around the United States.
Talked a lot about this too with my Villages' circle of friends in May of 2014 because I was worried about how to handle questions that might be asked me from the lawyers, judges and the like and I did not want to just start talking about this often traumatic experiences of mine to a room full of strangers who could not just hit some buttons on a computer and look at something else if they did not want to hear what I had to say or read what I had written.
