Stories about popular, exciting topics, often appear almost together , sometimes on the same day. On March 13 two stories published in the InformationWeek Daily Newsletter caught our attention and we wanted to pass them on to our readers:

In “The Intruder Story: Man At His Best”, Michael Hickins writes:

“As far as I’m concerned, David Prager is a hero. I would love to meet the man with enough sangfroid (that’s French for cojones) to Tweet and to even set up a Ustream of the event, all while reflecting on the relative degree of danger in which he found himself.”

Georgia K. Briscoe* of the University of Colorado School of Law Library has sent the following announcement which we are please to post here for the benefit of all law librarians and perhaps some others as well. Here is her announcement:

In case you haven’t heard, there is a new online SSRN journal which academic technical services librarians will find useful. LEGAL INFORMATION & TECHNOLOGY eJOURNAL is edited by Randy Diamond and Lee Peoples. I am pleased to be a member of the editorial board representing technical services issues. The archive already includes over 150 papers and is growing daily. This ejournal provides another avenue for TS librarians to publish.

Subscribers to SSRN will soon start receiving email issues announcing works in progress and recent publications. SSRN will issue a formal announcement soon, but the editors are pleased to provide a pre-launch viewing. Detailed information from Randy and Lee follows. I hope you will check out this new opportunity for professional growth and development.
