7 FCIL Newsl. 1 (1992-1993)

handle is hein.lbr/aafcnlt0007 and id is 1 raw text is: FCIL Newsletter Foreign, Comparative and International Law Special Interest Section, American Association of Law Libraries Volume 7 October 1992 Number 1 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR by Mila Rush University of Minnesota Law Library Am I losing my perspective of time? While I had planned to devote my first contribution to this column to plans for 1992/93 and while some of our SIS commit- tees are still being formed, I already have had to respond to a questionnaire (preliminary though it is) as to which FCIL SIS subgroups will be meeting (and what the respective desired times are) during the 1993 Boston meeting. I do realize we have to go on planning for summer 1993. Although my time- pressured report in San Francisco is the basis for this, there have been developments since the SIS Business Meeting, so please read on. Our activities for the year can be divided to meet these three goals: BEST WISHES to: Adolf Sprudzs, foreign and international law librarian at the D'Angelo Law Library, University of Chicago, who retired on October 1, 1992. Blanka Kudej, associate librarian for special collections at the New York University School of Law Library, who retires on January 1, 1993. Although they are leaving their official positions, we look forward to their continuing contributions to our profession in the coming years. Goal A: To work towards the FCIL SIS objective, which is to serve as a forum for the exchange of ideas and information on foreign, comparative, and international law. The following are efforts to achieve this: 1. Our Education/Program Committee met the deadline of August 14 to submit program and workshop proposals to the AALL Education Committee for presentation at the Annual Meeting in Boston. That was preceded by some groundwork starting with my stab at explaining the program planning process in the February 1992 issue of this newsletter (reinforced by Lei Seeger's items in the AALL Newsletter); some formal and informal solicitation of, and brainstorming for, ideas; a meeting of the committee in San Francisco; and the hectic days for chairs Lyonette Louis- Jacques and Jolande Goldberg just before the deadline. Now we await the verdict of Lei and her committee. (continued on page 3)
