handle is hein.lbr/lisp0004 and id is 1 raw text is: Aedcan Association LI SP 4 Law rues NEWSLETTER LEGAL INFORMATION SERVICE TO THE PUBLIC.SPECIAL INTEREST SECTION VOLUME 4 No. 1 FALL 1991 LETTER FROM THE CHAIR: Our infant SIS is beginning to grow quickly as evidenced by increased participation in both the business meeting at the New Orleans AALL meeting and the three programs that LISP sponsored or co-sponsored. These excellent programs are desribed in the minutes of the business meeting, printed elswhere in this newsletter issue.

The committee has submitted several intriguing proposals for the AALL Program Committee's consideration, including one addressing television's impact on the public's view of law. Other proposals involve two collaborative efforts with the Contemporary Social Problems SIS, one concerning governmental use of E-mail with the-Government Documents SIS, and one jointly proposed by LISP and Reader Services SIS. For the first time, a LISP survey was conducted this spring and the results were gratifying. Many members suggested interesting program ideas along with volunteering for various projects and committees. Thanks to all of you who responded to the survey.

In the near future, a number of you will be contacted about serving on various committees and projects. Active participation will ensure continued LISP growth.
