Law Libraries a Waste of Space in Courthouses

That’s the position of one Massachusetts official offered in the explanation for why the new courthouse in Worcester Massachusetts didn’t provide space for a law library.

Just goes to show that the case for legal research has to be made continually.

It wasn’t heard in Governor Romney’s office, which is why the law library has been the sole tenant of the otherwise abandoned “old” Worcester courthouse for eight months, and lawyers continue to have to trek in and out.
