Law Books as window dressing

Ad from the Legal Times March 6,2000:

Tired of sitting
in the Library?
We don't even have one!

14-lawyer plaintiff's firm seeks associate with 1-3 years lit. experience...

Cohen and Cohen...

They listed a website at http://www.cohenandcohen.net. Surprisingly, the
lawyers on the website are posed against a backdrop of books. When I saw it
I wondered if they were lying about the library or whether they all trooped
to a nearby firm to have their pictures taken against the book backdrop.

Maybe that is our future, to be window dressing.

Just an irreverent thought - where will law firms pose attorneys for photo
opps when our book collections are reduced to one motley wall? (See the
New York Times Metro section today. No disrespect to dressing up or down or
to Cadwalader intended!) Justine Kalka
