It really is great to have so many people interested enough in this
issue to take the time to pass on their thoughts. Yes, we absolutely have
looked at electronic publishing, and I think we will move in that
direction. The problem at this point is that our ByLaws stipulate that
every member of AALL will receive every issue of LLJ. With a significant
percentage of our membership without Net access at this point (basically
from the firm and court sectors) electronic distribution would not
comply. We need to free up the bylaws so that we can make some creative
decisions. That is all we want to do. We never, never, never said we
would eliminate LLJ.
