As we roll towards Easter and all the legal publishers are furiously working on what they?ll be telling shareholders re Q.2 figures we?ve been light on major new developments over the past fortnight
The big story for us is the fact that we are in the middle of a recession and we?ve never listed so many positions for Law Librarians, Legal KM?s and those of you who wish to give your soul away and work in the legal publishing industry.
The amount of jobs may simply be a result of better online access to free information about jobs on offer.
Take a look at our twitter section to read about a new Lexis job Tweet and we?ve also listed a few tweet job posts.? As of the next issue of LLN we will incorporate job tweets into our jobs board.
In the world of KM we?ve come across a selection of interesting posts and articles including the following:
Article: Virtual law offices and ethics ? is it safe to practice in the cloud?
Blog Post: Should GCs Retain LPO Vendors Directly or Through Law?Firms?
Conference: Knowledge Management and Legal Marketing
Survey: The Knowledge Management Peer Group of the International Legal Technology Association (ILTA) is conducting its biennial knowledge management survey to probe the trends, hot topics and development of KM in the legal industry.
Hong Kong holds a legal KM conference next week . We look forward to meeting up with people there. See details in our conferences section
Finally thanks to Ross Wishart of IPP legal publications in Sydney who brought the following site to our attention.
If you are bored of? looking at screens and text.. why not link through to these fabulous? pictures of? Rococo style libraries and imagine yourself bathed in gentle sunlight surrounded by the works of masters and researching arcane Byzantine texts.
