Hello everyone
Due to popular demand, the European Information Association is running
another 'EU legal information on the internet' course on Thursday 25
October 2001 at City University in London.
The course is for anyone who needs to brush up on their knowledge of EU
law and who wants to find the most efficient way of tracing it on the
internet. You'll learn how the EU's legal process works and be
introduced to the contents, structure and search strategy of web-based
EU databases such as CELEX and EUR-Lex plus key official websites.
The programme is outlined below. The cost is 145 GBP to EIA members, 195
GBP to non-members which includes refreshments, lunch and documentation.
Please contact me if you'd like further information and/or an
application form. You can also find information and sign up via our
website www.eia.org.uk (click on 'Training and Consultancy').
Best wishes
Catherine
