2007 Sheffield
TOO MUCH INFORMATION!
38th Annual Study Conference and Exhibition
Sheffield City Hall
Thursday 14th June - Saturday 16th June 2007
Information overload is a major concern throughout the profession and a problem for all those we serve: students, academics, researchers; trainees, fee earners, clients; barristers, civil servants, the judiciary. How can we help them to assimilate all the information we are able to place on their desks or desktops? How can we improve our own ability to process and use information? This provides the central theme of this year’s Conference, but there will be plenty of opportunity to examine other important issues and innovations in the world of legal information. The keynote address and Willi Steiner Memorial Lecture, "The Architecture of an Information Revolution", will be delivered by Adrian Dale.
Sheffield is England’s fourth-largest city, yet remains one of the greenest with many parks, gardens and woodlands. And only five miles away is the glorious scenery of the Peak District National Park. Sheffield’s city-centre shops, galleries and museums are on the doorstep, or you can hop aboard the Supertram and explore Meadowhall, one of Europe’s largest shopping malls. The Thursday to Saturday format of the Conference offers you an ideal opportunity to extend your stay and spend a long weekend in the area.
A range of accommodation is available, with rates negotiated for Conference delegates.
