You know we like you. Why else would we keep giving you all of these great CALI Lessons? So you should like us on Facebook. You'll get the latest CALI news and announcements. And you might even have a chance to win cool stuff (hint: pay special attention on Wednesdays).

A few weeks back we teamed up with Valparaiso Law Librarian Sarah Glassmeyer, the Legal Information Institute at Cornell Law School, and Justia to create the Law Student Guide to Free Legal Research on the Internet.

We're calling it Wordle Wednesday. Every Wednesday we'll create a word puzzle - with the great site Wordle - using one of our lessons. Then we'll post it to CALI's Facebook Page. The first law student Facebook Fan to correctly post the title and link of the lesson we used for that puzzle, wins a prize. Here's the CALI Wordle Wednesday for 9/8/2010.

Law students, have you ever been lost after having just read something in your casebook? Wish you had an easy way to find the CALI Lesson that covers what you just read? Well, stop wishing; that's actually a thing. For some casebooks, we can tell you which lessons match up with specific sections of the casebook.

Our free blog publishing platform for educators, Classcaster, has a handy - or handsfree, depending on how you roll with your phone - new feature. You can simply call a number and speak into your phone to create an audio file and post it directly your Classcaster blog.

We officially have a host school (with a fancy new building) for the 2011 CALI Conference for Law School Computing. More details from our fearless leader:

With law school orientation just around the corner, the 2010-11 CALI Lesson DVDs and a new batch of updated authorization code cards should be arriving soon at all CALI member law schools, if they have not already. Member schools should hand DVDs out to all of their students, but especially 1Ls.

You can find CALI at AALL's conference next week. Booth 709 of the exhibit hall, to be exact. If you're a fan of Law Librarian Conversations podcasts hosted by University of Nebraska Law Library's Richard Leiter and Marcia Dority-Baker, you will be able to meet them and many of their regular panelists in person at CALI's booth.

The LawLibCon crew is scheduled to be in the CALI booth Sunday from 2 to 3 PM, for more of a meet and greet, then on Tuesday from around 12 noon to 3 PM. Though they may be a bit preoccupied recording a show on Tuesday, you're still welcome to stop by; and they may even pull you in for your take on the meeting for the podcast.

Connie Crosby, one of the regular LawLibCon panelists has a nice roundup on Slaw blog with a link to the most recent LawLibCon podcast previewing the AALL meeting.

We're happy to announce a new CALI member law school. We'd like to welcome University of California - Irvine School of Law, a new public law school that just opened its doors in Fall 2009.

They're joining a consortium of over 210 US law schools (here's a list of all CALI member schools). Students and staff at UCI Law, like those at all member schools, will now have unlimited access to CALI Lessons.

This is a busy time for us here at CALI. It's definitely the conference season for us.

• From June 17-18th Deb and John are at the Institute for Law Teaching and Learning's conference where John gives a talk on "Ebooks As Social Media, Courses As Communities Of Practice."
• June 23-June 26 you can find the whole CALI staff at our very own 20th annual Conference for Law School Computing (there's still time to register).
• And from July 10-13 look for LaVonne, Deb, and Austin in the CALI booth at the American Association of Law Libraries (AALL) Annual Meeting in Denver.

So we hope to see you soon this summer.
