Welcome (back) to Robeside Assistance!

Since we started posting Ottawa decisions round-ups in 2010, we’ve had hundreds of visitors to our blog every month. Recently, we started compiling blog posts from legal folks in the Ottawa area, which our readers have responded enthusiastically to as well. So thank you for reading!

Through all this, we’ve never found the name “CCLA Library Blog” to be very inspiring. We decided it was time for a facelift and a new name. Robeside Assistance is a phrase we’ve been toying around with for a long time, and it finally occurred to us that it was perfect for the blog. The CCLA Library is your courthouse library, and we’re here to help you in your legal research (whether you’re gowned or not, of course!). Legal research is expensive and time consuming. Let us assist you – save time, save money, and get access to some of the best legal research products on the market. We’ll use this space to talk about legal research and products, upcoming training, tips and tricks, and of course, the popular decisions and blogs compilations.

We’ll be sticking to a more regular publishing schedule, so feel free to subscribe to the blog by email, or follow us on Twitter to catch posts as they happen. We’ll also continue to include many of our posts in the CCLA News email newsletter every Wednesday.

Thanks for reading, and we hope you enjoy the new look and name of our site!

Upcoming Training: Finding the Perfect Precedent

Our popular “Finding the Perfect Precedent” research session is back: Tuesday, March 15, 2016 at noon in the CCLA Library.

We get a lot of requests at the library for precedents. A lot. Accordingly, we like to make sure the library’s precedents collection is on point – we want to be able to offer you the best selection we can. This research session will cover the resources we have, how we’d use them, and also uncover some lesser-known precedent options for when O’Brien’s and Quicklaw won’t cut it. If you need a great refresher (or intro!) to finding precedents, this session is for you.

This session is free, but please click here to RSVP so we know how many people to expect. In the future, we’ll look into providing this session as a webinar, but we won’t be running “Finding the Perfect Precedents” again for several months in any format, so don’t miss out!
