TEACH-IN/SOURCEBOOK -- PARTNERS FOR INSTRUCTIONAL EXCELLENCE
Do you have any legal instructional materials, guides, presentations,
assignments, exams? Why not consider sharing them with your colleagues
through the RIPS-SIS Teach-In Resource Kit or the ALL-SIS Legal Research
Sourcebook.
ALL-SIS and RIP-SIS, two long-standing AALL special interest sections,
have joined together to recruit submissions of legal research training
and instructional materials. The RIPS sponsored National Legal Research
Teach-In campaign has provided the popular Teach-In Resource Kit for
many years as a print publication designed to support the instructional
activities of law librarians. It is published annually in conjunction
with National Library Week each April. And now ALL-SIS has established
its ground-breaking Legal Research Sourcebook as an electronic database
of any and all legal research instructional materials that AALL members
wish to submit.
How can you play a part in this exciting new partnership? Get involved
by sharing your comments, suggestions - and materials! Teach
In/Sourcebook submissions are currently being accepted. You can contact
or send submissions as email attachments to any of the people listed
below. Any document format that can be attached to email is acceptable.
We will accept most any instructional materials that you care to offer:
course syllabi, research guides, lecture notes, handouts, assignments,
lesson plans, PowerPoint shows, basic instructional guides, examinations
and guided quizzes, crossword puzzles and trivia quizzes. And we will
recommend whether your materials are suitable for publication in the
Teach-In Kit or the Sourcebook database - or both! So, you have the
choice of contributing to both publications through a single submission
process.
Both special interest sections will maintain these unique resources to
provide the best legal research materials to AALL members. In order to
solicit the widest range of submissions possible for both sources, RIPS
and ALL-SIS decided to partner in their public relations efforts. Now
your legal research materials can go the extra mile by supporting two
resources at the same time!
We welcome your ideas and suggestions and encourage you to contact us to
discuss your contributions to or comments about this exciting new
partnership.
