Legal Research

Digital Books

I have my fingers and toes crossed that an Apple Store in Michigan can hook me up with a shiny new iPad tomorrow. I am flying through Detroit on my way to the CALL/MichALL 2010 Conference in Windsor. An iPad is an early birthday present since an e-reader has been on my must have list for a while. Now that I can acquire an e-reader on steroids, I can’t wait any longer. Canadians have to wait for the iPad release, and since I can’t reserve over the phone, or online without a US mailing address, I just have to make some calls from the Avis counter at the Wayne County airport to see if stock is available, and hope hope hope.

Coincidentally, today the Legal Informatics Blog has a post about Law books on The Open Library. We talked about this project on Slaw back in 2005. They have a LOT of cool stuff in there now so it is worth a look. I hope I can browse it soon with my iPad.
