Life after Law School with the Law Library

Jon Elias- Library Media Technical Asst.- jon.elias@law.csuohio.edu | April 15, 2008 - 10:59

Graduation is a time for celebration and hopefully all of you will remember your time at Cleveland Marshall as a great experience. I'm sure the first question you are asking is, by golly jeez will I still be able to use the Law Library? Well of course you can! As an alumni you can fill out a form for, now get ready for it, an alumni card. Don’t like social interaction? Then here is the link for the online form. The alumni card functions pretty much the same way as your CSU ID. You can still check out books and use Ohio Link. Another benefit is the use of the alumni room which has a computer accessible to the internet and attached printer. You can access Lexis or Westlaw, but only if you have your own subscription. Alumni also have many other services available to them, but I'm still bummed about Borowski blowing another save against the Red Sox last night, so click here for everything else you need to know.
