AOTUS: Collector in Chief

It put into perspective all of the work during the previous year to ensure that students and faculty had the information resources and support they needed in their coursework and research—a morning to celebrate the launch of another class of educated men and women. So, I am taking this assignment seriously. Ride The Lightning. Jeremy Blachman's Weblog: 2011. FDA Law Blog. E-Discovery Insights. CT Lien Solutions Blog.
