Educational Use of the Internet Amendment: Is it Necessary? (Part II)

I am an Associate Professor at the University of Western Ontario jointly appointed to the Faculty of Law and the Faculty of Information and Media Studies (FIMS).

Before coming to Western, I was a law librarian at the Boalt Hall Law Library at the University of California at Berkeley and before that I was in private law practice in California. My doctoral work in the Department of Information Studies at UCLA focused on information policy issues.

I am currently a Network Investigator and Theme Leader with the GRAND NCE and also serve on the Librarians Committee of the Canadian Association of University Teachers.
