Feit Consulting is presenting on “What is the Modern Library?” at the Ark Group’s 12th annual Law Firm Library, Research & Information Services conference, February 22, 2018.

Our program offers clear insights into the steps firms need to take for maximum efficiency and delivery of legal information resources and the role of the Modern Library. Feit Consulting’s Michael Feit, President & Founder and Monice Kaczorowski, Vice-President of Library Strategy and Innovation will lead the program by sharing their research on library modernization and how this is defined. We share key take-aways from our white paper, Beyond Virtualization: Transforming the Law Library.

An expert panel will discuss the “Big Picture” of Librarians as disruptors, how to change the stereotypical image of the librarian, how to run the Library as a business and the importance of interdepartmental support and technology. Panelists include:

  • Shabeer Khan, Director of Research Services with Morrison & Foerster,
  • Greg Lambert, Chief Knowledge Services Officer with Jackson Walker, and
  • Nancy Rine, Director of Research Services and Conflicts with Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson.

The role of Library Services within firms and organizations has shifted. The program will address how and why Librarians need to move beyond traditional research roles, reinventing themselves to support the business of law. Added to this is why it’s important for administrators to be open to the new roles the modern law library can play.
