I had a great experience at the American Association of Law Librarians 2023 Conference and this post will outline my experience from beginning to end.

Legal Conferences & Events: TBD Law

June 6, 2017 Heather Holmes

For the third consecutive year, Lawyerist and Filament will team up to host a sort of summer camp for lawyers. Known as TBD Law, this unconventional conference/retreat/summit/workshop is an event designed for innovative solo and small firm legal practitioners who are serious about shaping the future of law. Generating fresh ideas and new approaches to improving the practice of law is the goal, and only those who demonstrate a commitment to engaging with big ideas will be invited to attend. Restricting the number of participants will allow for diversity of thought and ensure that all voices have a chance to be heard. To request an invitation, submit your application by July 14th. Fifty-five innovative, forward-thinking lawyers with a vision for improving the future of law office management, client relations, and law-firm business models will be selected to take part in this one-of-a-kind experience. Don't miss it!

What’s behind the name? “Ex Libris Juris” is Latin for “from the books of law” and much of the information here will relate to the legal information collected and curated by the Law Library. Additionally, “Ex Libris” has long appeared on bookplates – labels appearing inside the front cover of books – and has acquired the connoted meaning “from the library of” to show ownership of the book. Using this connotation, the phrase becomes “from the library of law” and better describes the posts about digital resources, event announcements, and research tips that will regularly appear here.
