I'm pleased to announce that Volume 5 and 6 of the Briefs in Law
Librarianship series (No. 56 in the AALL Publications Series) are now
available for purchase from the William S. Hein Company.

Volume 5; Survey on Electronic Reserves (Hein Item 327520) by Cathy
Cochran, University of Tennessee Law Library, offers information about the
types of information resources law schools place in electronic reserve
collections, the types of software packages used to mount e-reserves, and
problems that institutions have encountered in doing so. Forty law
libraries responded to the survey questions and two libraries sent samples
of the types of items they place in their e-reserve collections. The
information in this document will prove useful to any librarians planning
to implement and administer electronic reserve collections.

Volume 6; Survey on Food and Drink in Law Libraries (Hein Item 328280) by
Jessie L. Cranford, UALR Wm. H. Bowen School of Law, answers the age old
question of how other law libraries administer their food and drink
policies. It outlines the common restrictions placed on allowing food and
drink in the law library and lists the most common and significant
problems libraries face in enforcing food and drink policies. Over 105
surveys were returned by academic, firm, and government libraries. Sample
policies from a variety of law libraries are included. This document
should prove useful to any law librarian struggling with the age old
question of how to enforce food and drink policies.
