The question of how reference is provided, and to whom, is an interesting
one. I have a similar, related question for the list. I have worked in
several libraries where I was adjured to *NOT* post any reference requests
to the list. I wasn't told I couldn't subscribe or read, but the firm or
company didn't want any other law libraries knowing what we were looking
for, in case of breach of confidentiality. This actually came up at a
nonprofit library too, not just a law library.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? How did you deal with it?
