Dear Catherine
Please could you put a message on Eurotalk for
me about the Willi Steiner Memorial Lecture?
Best wishes
Barbara Tearle
President, BIALL
Message reads:
Please don't forget to book for BIALL's Willi
Steiner Memorial Lecture.
Where: Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer,
off Fleet Street, London.
When: Thursday 12 May 2005 at
6pm, followed by a drinks reception.
Topic: The European Civil Code Movement
and the Common Frame of Reference of the EU
Speaker: Professor Hugh Beale, a Law Commissioner. The lecture will be followed by a panel discussion with
Mr Justice Lewison and Simon James (from the law firm Clifford
Chance).
Booking: is essential for catering and
security.
Why should you attend? As librarians we
work in a global environment and need to know about developments, such as this,
which seeks to discover, or create, common principles of European private
law.
Who was Willi Steiner? Willi was
Librarian of the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies and contributed to
international law librarianship and to comparative legal scholarship for nearly
50 years. He also worked at LSE Library, the Squire Law Library, Cambridge and advised at the European University Institute at Florence. He
was an active member of the International Association of Law
Libraries, the British and Irish Association of Law Librarians (both of
which he helped set up), the American Association of Law Libraries, the World Peace Through Law Center, the Society of Public Teachers of Law, the Council of the United Kingdom National Committee of
Comparative Law and Editor for many years of the Index to Foreign Legal Periodicals. All this was hidden behind a kind and self-effacing personality: he was
always approachable.
