February 23, 1954. REGULAR MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 12, 1954 Thirty-two members of the Chicago Association of Law Libraries gathered at the Normandy House Restaurant on Friday, February 12, 1954 for the regular luncheon meeting. Mr. Charles A. McNabb, Chairman of the Constitutional Revision Committee, was presented by the President, Miss Jean Ashman. Mr. McNabb presented proposals for changes in three sections of the Consti- tution, as defined in the letter of January 29th which was cir- culated to all members by our Secretary-Treasurer, Miss Dorothy Scarborough. A unanimous vote in favor of adoption of the amend- ments was cast. Mrs. Virginia Dun'rp, Chairman of the Program Committee, presented Mr. Francis J. Rooney, joint author of the forthcoming publication entitled RESEARCH IN ILLINOIS LAW, who described this work and answered queries concerning it. Mrs. Dunlap explained that Mrs. Bernita J. Davies, the other joint author, was unable to be present because of the great demand upon he' time necessitated by preparation for the new law library at the University of Illinois. 14r. Rooney explained that the pur- pose of the book was to indicate some poInts of departure in legal research involving Illinois Materials. He expressed the hope that the volume would be of considerable value to law stu- dents and lawyers. Some of the topics treated in its eight chapters are: Judicial Systems and Court Reports, Administrativ0 Law, Statutory Law, Citators, and Digests. Although, Mr. Rooney disavowed any intention to educate law librarians, it may be predicted safely that the work will become a vade mecum not only for all law librarians in Illinois, but for many others across the nation. NOMINATING COMMITTEE APPOINTED At the regular meeting of the Association held on Friday, February 12, 1954, Miss Jean Ashman, President of the Chicago Association of Law Libraries, announced that she has appointed the following members to the Nominating Committee: Mr. Myron Jacobstein, Chairman, Miss Dorothy Klofkorn, and Miss Marie Lawrence.
