Target Audience: Law librarians who utilize environmental regulations; librarians who provide legal information to non-legal professionals Learning Outcomes: 1. Participants will be able to list the documents produced in the environmental regulatory process. 2. Participants will be able to explain the unique requirements of the scientist as legal researcher.
Law librarians are familiar with how to research regulations. But do they know about the documents generated in the regulatory process, or how they can best serve non-legal professionals seeking this information? A research chemist and law librarian from the United States Environmental Protection Agency will provide a behind-the-scenes look at the regulatory process--how scientific research needs differ from that of legal professionals and how to provide legal information to non-legal professionals.
