Kenneth J. Hirsh / Summer 2013

Ken, Professor of Practice and Director of the Law Library and I.T., was co-presenter over the summer of two sessions at the 2013 CALI Conference for Law School Computing in June.  There, Ken and Sara Frug of the Legal Information Institute (LII) introduced the new version of the Securities Lawyer’s Deskbook, which is hosted by the Robert S. Marx Law Library and now provides direct links to securities law and regulations kept up-to-date by LII.  Additionally, Ken and Professor James Milles of University of Buffalo took opposing viewpoints in answering Professor Milles’s question: Are Law Libraries Doomed?

In July, Ken was named one of the 2013 Fastcase 50. The recognition from the legal information service is given to recognize “the law’s smartest, most courageous innovators, techies, visionaries & leaders.” Also in July, Ken assumed a seat on the executive board of the American Association of Law Libraries.
