9560 views now as of 10:18 PM EST 7/17/2017. The American Association of Law Libraries convention enters its last day tomorrow in Austin, Texas.
I wonder if they have noticed the 26.6 years of work I have put into my Herculean 224 613 Project and the friends I seem to have made during that quest to help survivors/victims of crimes by getting many groups in each community involved in assessing the needs of that group in each community. Started by writing 4000 victim/witness assistance providers from 1992 through 2000 or so via snail and then e-mails about what they would like to see in their law and public libraries. Just collection development techniques taught me when I was at the University of Denver Graduate School of Librarianship and Information Management where I graduated in May of 1984. |

I have been working on this since January 1991 but it is just a hobby but did get me 24 nominations to Marquis Who's Who publications from 1992 through 2004 or so. And I have tried to get many to spotlight the problems I saw when doing this massive 224 613 Project. Facebook has come in extremely handy with getting the message out. What's in your library? |

Fascinating, do you have a website or a publication after 26 years?

2017 ABA Annual Meeting The inclusion of many lawyers into this 224 613 Project is critical to its survival. Remember to ignore the trolls on this thread. The crux of this matter is what is in your local public and law library that will help survivors/victims deal with the legal system and that includes victims who have not reported crimes yet? That is before the bureaucracy kicks in. |

9711 views now as of 4:02 PM EST 7/18/2017. I met law students/judges at the University of Nevada, Reno; Brigham Young University Law School; the University of Denver Law School in the Graduate student dorm; and the University of Minnesota Law School where I graduated in May 1989 and worked in the Law Library until June 1991. Had three male law student roommates and a girlfriend/roommate who was also my former Legal Assistance to Minnesota Prisoners' student. Also met law students as well as law professors at SUNY Buffalo; North Carolina Central University; and a few other places. What is in your library? This is about crowd sourcing of local professionals in social work, law, nursing, medicine, etc., evaluating what is in your local law and public libraries that will help survivors/victims of crimes. It is not about what some group in Washington DC dictates as being worthwhile for survivors/victims of crimes. |

Republicans have been more supportive over the past 26.5 years with my massive 224 613 Project. Mainly because this is about limiting government through arming people with access to very useful information about their rights and the services available to them. It would act as controls on bureaucrats and put more power in localities rather than the Federal government. I have had support from some Democrats as well. I had even sent some e-mails in the 2000s to the National Rifle Association about this. It is about defending yourself through education and logic. Kind of a hard sell in Trump land though. |

Sad about developments with Senator John McCain. I liked how he stood up to candidate Donald John Trump and still continues this while Trump is President. |
