Continuing Education Opportunities and Events
The Cobb County Law Library is proud to offer an expanding number of continuing education and training opportunities. Unless noted, all library sponsored programs are open to the public, however, most require advance registration. For more information on any of these programs or to suggest or request additional offerings please call the library at 770.528.1884.
Online Legal Research Training
Legal research used to take hours! Sorting through indexes, tracking down citations in book after book and sometimes still walking away without the information you were looking for! The internet is revolutionizing the way attorneys and the public at large conduct legal research. With the right search terms and a click of the mouse you can now find the information you need in a matter of seconds! However, while efficient, even online legal research can be frustrating if you don't know how to use the tools available. It's why we've teamed up with the experts in the industry to offer regularly scheduled training sessions. Below you’ll find the dates of upcoming courses. Registration and a $5 seat fee are both required in advance as class size is very limited. CLE credit is available for attorneys at an extra cost. Classes will be held on the 2nd floor of building A in the computer training room.

Lecture Series
We want the Cobb County Law Library to be more than just a book depository. It's why we're implementing new programs like those listed below to give attorneys and the public at large opportunities to expand their knowledge of the law, network within their chosen fields and even have a little fun! These programs are still being developed and any suggestions are welcome.
