CALI sends out, literally, thousands of DVD's, every Fall; enough for all member law school's entire student body. We hope each school can distribute each and every disc to a student or faculty member, but we realize this may be impossible for some schools.
So to reduce environmental impact, CALI will pay for the recycling of leftover discs (up to 2 boxes, 20 lbs each).
AALL has formed a partnership with CALI to provide all of its member librarians with access to CALI Lessons.
From AALL's February 2009 e-Newsletter:
In addition to continued access to popular services like CALI Lessons, ClassCaster, Awards, The Conference for Law School Computing, and Instapoll; this year CALI provided member schools with more innovative services than ever.
We gave you brand new services.
Sarah Walton, professor of justice studies at the University of Maine at Augusta, is using CALI Lessons to teach troops in Afghanistan.
Now the 5,000-student college is reaching out to active-duty personnel stationed overseas. UMA will offer priority slots in five summer courses this year to a Maine Army National Guard unit stationed in Kandahar.
