Law & Order: Bring Order to Practice Resources with LibApps

Sunday, June 28, 2026
2:00pm - 2:15pm (Eastern Time - US & Canada) change time zone

About:

Hear how librarians from Nelson Mullins reimagined LibGuides for a law firm environment, creating focused guides that function as trusted practice area “cheat sheets” for attorneys. Instead of trying to include everything, these guides highlight key databases, firm-specific access notes, current awareness tools, and training resources.

The session will share how their model grew out of necessity during a time of transition, as well as how they keep guides visible through onboarding, training, and reference interactions – without adding major technical or marketing work. Attendees will learn ideas for streamlining guides into reliable and flexible research tools, to strengthen visibility, and reduce maintenance labor. This session is ideal for librarians supporting practice groups who want better engagement with LibGuides while spending less time maintaining them.
