To all NJLLA Members: AALL has marked this day in history as our official NJLLA birthday. A special thank you to our founding father Scott Fisher and founding mother Karen Brunner, and to the other founding members, for creating this proud organization of librarians. Happy Birthday NJLLA! Congratulations on 20 years of prosperity and service!

I think I like it. Yes I really like it!

If you’re attending the AALL meeting in New Orleans, be sure to register for the Joint Chapter reception with LLAGNY and ALLUNY. Space is limited so register early!

Motion in limine (Latin: “at the threshold“) is a motion, made before the start of a trial requesting that the judge rule that certain evidence may, or may not, be introduced to the jury in a trial. This is done in judge’s chambers, out of hearing of the jury. If a question is to be decided in limine, it will be for the judge to decide. Usually it is used to shield the jury from possibly inadmissible and harmful evidence (more from Wikipedia entry). [drc]
