Rich, I am new to the CD-ROM technonlogy but I think it is going to get much bigger. I am a law student who is good with computers and would be interested in getting legal refernce materials on CD-Rom for research. These would be your basic "reporters" that are found in any law library. Where would I go to find this information if you do not know? Capt. Kirk

Kirk: (we prefer you not use handles on the CDROM Forums, BTW) I'd suggest leaving a message in Section 2 – Titles & New Prods – of the CDROM Forum (go cdrom). Offhand, I'm only aware of statutes and some case law (eg., West's products), but someone there might know. Also the LawSIG here on CIS might have some info for you. Best – Rich Bowers

Rich, Hey come on. We, part of your intrepid team of SLs, publish the New Hampshire and Vermont Reports, and Statutes for both states on CDROM. We also have New Hampshire rules, regs and town ordinances, and will be adding the same for Vermont RSN. No New England Lawyer should be without one<g>. Frank

Frank: Mea Culpa (2)! Sorry about that! But you know, it would be much easier for me to remember if you guys would send me some info about those products for my database. And, BTW, whatever happened with your group of legal publishers? If no one is doing a good job in getting the word out about legal titles, maybe OPA ought to undrtake that task. I got a call from a newsletter editor in the legal field the other day, and she couldn't get a handle on it either. Opportunity might be knocking here! Best – Rich
