October 2013 Issue of Connected Bulletin on Courts and Social Media
The October 2013 issue of Connected is available online. The bulletin covers news about the impact of new social media on courts.
Most issues cover news from the United States, but there is occasional coverage of other jurisdictions.
In this issue:
- Courts and QR Codes
- Justices from 12 midwest states consider implications of evolving technology on the courts
- Australia’s Supreme Court of Victoria launches new social media initiative
- Ohio explores haunted courthouses across the state
The bulletin is published by the Virginia-based National Center for State Courts (NCSC) and the Conference of Court Public Information Officers.
