Meet with Reference librarians from the San Diego Law Library on Thursday, May 16, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in the Adult Services Business Center.

Reference librarians from the San Diego Law Library will be on site on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of each month from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in the Adult Services Business Center (next to the Information Desk) to guide you to resources to better understand and research common legal issues, assist with using the new legal databases, show you free legal websites, and make referrals to legal aid organizations.

Law Librarians cannot give you legal advice or perform legal research for you, but if you need to research a legal issue or are just curious about the law, they can guide you to resources and show you how to use them.
