CALL/ACBD Conference ( #callacbd2016) Underway in Vancouver

I've been watching the CALL/ACBD conference unroll on Twitter the last couple of days, and by all accounts it's off to a great start: a terrific event in the stunning city of Vancouver.

If you're not able to be at the conference, be sure to follow the hashtag #callacbd2016. Seeing photos and candid moments and thoughts from the event really feel like the next best thing to being there! I've already hit on a few cool things...

This short & sweet handout contains three ideas for business development/marketing projects that law firm librarians can tackle right away:

And lastly, I was glad to see that the panel session Steve participated in, Computers in Legal Research, was well received!

Fascinating panel on #ai in law at #callacbd2016 with @stevematthews @nrusse @IvanMokanov and TR Legal rep. Well informed. Zero hyperbole

There are still two days of sessions left. I'm keen to see more live-tweeting, especially from this morning's Lightning Talks!
