Students entering law school must adjust and adhere to a new, demanding set of educational standards and strategies. This can often be a huge transition for first-year students, which is why we are excited about the Coach’s Counsel column, How to Prepare for Your Law School Journey, published in a recent issue of PLI Chronicle: Insights and Perspectives for the Legal Community.
In the column, coaches Natalie Loeb and David Sarnoff offer valuable wisdom on developing practical strategies to maximize academic performance and maintain balance. The coaches suggest methods for time management and strategic planning and reflect on resources that are often underutilized during law school. They also identify the specific type of mindset crucial for success. The column, like all content published in the PLI Chronicle, is available to everyone — no subscription required.

New pay transparency laws are coming into effect across the nation, which is why we are excited about Erin Pulaski’s article, Bringing Pay Data into the Sunlight: California’s New Pay Transparency Protections, published in July’s issue of PLI Chronicle: Insights and Perspectives for the Legal Community.**
The article serves as an excellent primer on how the recently enacted Senate Bill 1162 impacts employers and employees in California. It reviews California’s existing protections, describes the changes imposed by the new law, and answers questions about pay data confidentiality and remote employees. Pulaski, a partner at Rudy, Exelrod, Zieff & Lowe LLP, regularly represents employees and executives in all aspects of individual and class action employment litigation. She is co-author, along with Lindsay Hutner, a shareholder at Greenberg Traurig LLP, of PLI’s recently published California Employment Law treatise.

Earlier this month, the PLI librarians enjoyed connecting with law librarians from across the country at the 2023 American Association of Law Libraries Annual Meeting & Conference in Boston.
At the PLI Booth, we provided demos of PLI PLUS, answered questions about the PLI Press catalog of publications, and shared our new podcast PLI Ever Current: The Practising Law Librarian. Hosted by Karen Oesterle, PLI’s associate director of legal research development, The Practising Law Librarian features interviews with movers and shakers in the law librarian community – many of whom were at the conference – including Cornell H. Winston, the incoming vice president/president-elect of AALL, and Becky Katz, whose poster “On the Right Track: A New Approach to Access to Justice in the District of Columbia” was on display in the exhibit hall.
At PLI’s Lunch & Learn, attendees watched a demonstration of PLI PLUS that highlighted several new enhancements added to the platform in the last year including an archival titles filter, Ever Current links, the trending titles and topics display, and more. Check out the slides from the presentation.
Trisha Petitt, Foley & Lardner LLP’s technical services librarian, pictured here next to PLI’s associate director of library relations Kay Mitchell (on the left), was the lucky winner of this year’s Lunch & Learn raffle.
It was great seeing so many of our colleagues in Boston this year! For anyone who couldn’t attend, check out these flyers from our booth:
