Law Librarianship
A collection of 18 essays chronicling the history of law librarianship as a profession detailing the pioneering personalities in the American Association of Law Libraries and issues facing libraries. The contributing law librarians describe the evolution of the US Supreme Court Library, law firm libraries, the Los Angeles County Law Library, the work of William R. Roalfe and Frederick Hicks, the history of the AALL and associated organizations, and featured topics in both the establishment of African-American law libraries and the role of women directors in academic law libraries.

The Role of Citation in the Law
Contains papers presented at Yale Law School's Virtual Symposium on Citations and the Law, held April 22-23, 2021, which highlighted the scholarship of law librarians and faculty interested in issues ranging from the US News and World Reports rankings for scholarly productivity, to link rot, to empirical research in the use of citations, and more. Keynote speaker Fred Shapiro's paper "The Most-Cited Legal Scholars Revisited" sets the stage. The remaining chapters continue the impressive collection of first-rate scholarship from more than 20 authors from law schools across the country. This material advances the understanding of law librarianship and legal information management and encourages law librarians to continue to create and publish a body of scholarship. It also shows the intense interest of law school administrations and their alums and donors in rankings of scholarship (and although U.S. News & World Report made the decision not to pursue its Scholarly Impact Ranking, at least for now, the issue is far from settled).--Publisher.

Paving the Way
The first wave of trailblazing female law professors and the stage they set for American democracy. When it comes to breaking down barriers for women in the workplace, Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s name speaks volumes for itself—but, as she clarifies in the foreword to this long-awaited book, there are too many trailblazing names we do not know. Herma Hill Kay, former Dean of UC Berkeley School of Law and Ginsburg’s closest professional colleague, wrote Paving the Way to tell the stories of the first fourteen female law professors at ABA- and AALS-accredited law schools in the United States. Kay, who became the fifteenth such professor, labored over the stories of these women in order to provi...
