- Abstract
In December 2012, the Council of the American Bar Associations Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar approved for Notice and Comment proposed changes to accreditation standards that affect the law library: all of Chapter 6 (Library and Information Resources); Standard 405(c) in Chapter 4 (The Faculty) on security of position for clinical faculty members as they relate to Standard 603(d); specific standards in Chapter 7 (Facilities, Equipment, and Technology)--Standard 702 (Law Library), Standard 703 (Research and Study Space), and Standard 704 (Technological Capacity); Standard 509 (Consumer Information) as it relates to the law library in Chapter 5 (Admissions and Student Services); and Standard 106(2) (Separate Locations and Branch Campuses). On August 11, 2014 the ABA House of Delegates concurred in all of the proposed standards. Dean Russell examines the changes and provides analysis and suggestions for improvement.
