The American Association of Law Libraries will be submitting a letter to the Register of Copyrights identifying the organization as an interested party, raising issues at that point in only a general way. The Association will probably participate in hearings which the Register is scheduling in the coming months. If the December 7 letter and any testimony from AALL is posted to the web, it will appear on the AALLNet site at http://www.aallnet.org/
