Annual Lambton Law Membership Drive
February 3 2022
An invoice went out to Lambton lawyers in January to solicit payment for membership. If you did not receive an invoice from the Association, please contact Michelle Gerrits at lambtonlaw@bellnet.ca. The cost for 2022 is $185. Out-of-town counsel who are members with another county/district Association can arrange for a fee of $160.00 (reduced by the FOLA levy). Payment can be made by cheque or e-transfer.

Lambton Law Association Legal Directory
​February 2 2021
An email went out today asking lawyers to complete a form to provide accurate information to build new directories. A draft of the print directory has been provided as well. We are looking to re-build our online directory in alphabetical and practice area formats as the apps used in our previous format are no longer available for building or making changes. Please complete the form before the end of February.

Lambton Library Catalogue
February 2 2021
Lambton hosts its own library catalogue and circulation system at https://lambtonlawlib.libib.com/
​
There have been significant changes to the Law Society of Ontario catalogue with a new format change from AdvoCAT to the InfoLocate platform. Library staff have not yet been provided with training for all the bells and whistles, but once I learn the ins and outs, I will offer some tutorials to assist lawyers in navigating the LSO Great Library Catalogue.
