This month's site is: Animal Law Resource Center A website of the Animal Law Resource Center provides access to information about legislation and legal matters pertaining to animals. All information on proposed federal and state legislation, state and federal laws, case law summaries, and bibliography of animal law resources may be accessed free of charge. Animal law impacts many areas of legal practice, including criminal law, contracts, torts, sales and professional licensing and more. The Animal Law Resource Center also offers model laws on a broad spectrum of animal issues, including animal cruelty, animal control, laboratory animal welfare, and the use of animals in education and product testing. You can view the bibliographic record for this website in the University of Hawaii Law Library's catalog at: uhlaw.lib.hawaii.edu/vwebv/...(Please use a Firefox browser) or alternately go to https://uhlaw.lib.hawaii.edu/vwebv/searchBasic?sk=law and execute a title search by Animal Law Resource Center Finally, if you have encountered (and especially if you have cataloged) a particularly useful or interesting website that you would like to share via the Website of the Month, please email me at [email protected].

By Brian HuffmanThere are presentations and resources during the annual Open Access Week (October 24-30, 2016). There will be a keynote address by President David Lassner. Come learn about various topics, including Open Access at the Intersection of Political Economy and Social Justice; Copyright, Intellectual Property, Creative Commons and Fair Use Panel; Wikipedia Editing: Hawaiian Mythology, and many more... A research guide provides more information and a complete schedule. Professor Szymczak, the Law Library Director, organizes fun dive trips at UH that double for an opportunity to help keep our harbors and reefs clean of debris. Diving for Detritus - cleverly named by Dean Soifer - is open to all certified divers at UH. It works closely with Ocean Defenders Alliance out of California who hopes to establish a chapter here in Hawaii. In addition to law students, we have grads from SOEST involved in our efforts. It is a great way to socialize across schools - though it is NOT an official UH organization.
The first dive of the 2016-2017 academic year takes place tomorrow at 12:30 on the west side. Our boat leaves from the Waianae Boat Harbor, courtesy of Hawaii Nautical! Big mahalos to Hawaii Nautical for supporting ocean clean up efforts. Tomorrow, divers will learn the rudiments of ocean clean up and practice how to haul unsafe materials from the ocean onto the boat. Kurt Lieber, founder of ODA, will be leading the instruction. There is a $10 tank fee. Hawaii Nautical can arrange for equipment rentals if you need to rent equipment. Contact Professor Szymczak if you want to join tomorrow or sign up for future dives. The group tries to go out once a month. So GET OUT OF THE LAW LIBRARY and go diving with Professor Szymczak!
