A New Portal…

♫ Feel in my heart
the start of something new…♫

Lyrics and music by: Matthew Gerrard & Robbie Nevil, from High School Musical.

The BC Courthouse Library Society is launching their new website today (http://www.courthouselibrary.ca/cms/) which should be ‘live’ shortly (the old site is still there as this is posted).

The new site certainly fulfills their Strategic Direction as set out on their site:

Provision of Legal Information, Products, and Services to Members of the Legal Community:

Goals:

To understand the changing practice of members of the legal community and how they obtain and use legal information.

To design products and services in consultation with members of the legal community to meet their needs and improve the quality of our service.

To optimize access and services for members of the legal community outside the Lower Mainland and Victoria.

This is certainly not your standard library research website.
