UF Law Library Presentation about SL

Last Friday I took my laptop to the UF Law Library and made a presentation on the educational possibilities for law schools and law libraries. The audience was UF law librarians and directors of law libraries from all over Florida. This was an informal joint presentation / tour put together by me and UF law librarian Jessica Wittman (Scout Harbour in SL).

We looked at the Library Reference Desk at Info Island, the NSU Cybrary, the new Steeehead small town Public Library, then toured Gator Nation Island. We then demonstrated some of the interactive learning activities we have planned in the CSI: Gator Nation project (taking crime scene photos, collecting/taking evidence, and role plays of court trials).

The audience was receptive and also could see the applications for law school faculty.
