Maryland State Law Library
The Maryland State Law Library provides legal information to the State’s appellate courts and other branches of State government and serves as a resource center for Circuit Court libraries throughout the State. The library is open to the public, and encourages the use of the Library’s many resources, including laws, general reference materials, state and federal government documents, and state and local histories.
The State Law Library, Maryland’s oldest law library, features one of the State’s most extensive collections of legal and government information resources. Staffed by 18 full-time and part-time, professional and paraprofessional employees, the Library stands ready to serve users from all walks of life.
Sandy Brewer recommended the conference and stated that it was timely with
Howard County just opening their self-help center. She was able to visit the
Minnesota self-help center. Sandy reported that the importance of partnerships
with the clerk’s office, judges and even the sheriffs’ offices was stressed and that
libraries were considered important in the public’s access to justice. Sandy found
the SRL pre-conference, which was smaller, to be even more helpful and would
recommend attending this conference. Sandy distributed hand-outs from the
conference: page 3 from “The Value of a Public Law Library†and “The Case for
…Public Law Library Services for the Self-Represented: An Opportunity to
enhance Access to Justice for All.
