• A Time for Thanks 

November always calls us to be grateful. In the first half of the month, we're thankful to all of the veterans of military service who have served on our behalf throughout the years. We appreciate the great sacrifices that they and their families have made to insure our comfort and security. In the latter half of the month we are thankful for the bounty of our lives, in whatever form that may take. We take stock and focus on the things that make us feel fortunate.

I'm fortunate to have a healthy, wonderful and supportive family; an inspiring profession and work that fulfills me; and brilliant and generous colleagues. That's a lot to be thankful for!

And I'm thankful to everyone who helps to move NELLCO forward year after year. This group includes NELLCO staff member Theresa McCue, who is instrumental in the day-to-day work of the organization, and the 25 member NELLCO Board of Directors, who bring their experience and insight to bear at the helm. This also includes our NELLCO Interest Group Leaders (Elisabeth Umpleby (UConn), Brian Flaherty (New England Law Boston), Renee Rastorfer (Western New England), Caroline Walters (Suffolk), Sabrina Ash (Suffolk), Sue Zago (Northeastern), Chris Hepler (UMaine)), our host institution Albany Law School and the staff of the Schaffer Law Library, all of those members who volunteer their time and talents to various NELLCO projects and programs, our Industry Partners, our outside contractors and consultants, our collaboration partners, and our general cheerleaders. To everyone who helps to further our mission, we thank you! 

Yours In Collaboration,

Please talk with your local vendor reps and encourage them to participate. We want them to be part of the conversation and share in the success of this first-ever event. They can visit the conference website for more information.

We apologize for the delay in launching our new website. It turns out that we have one authentication application on our current site that isn't easily replicated on our new site. If we were to launch the new site without addressing this issue, subscribers' access to Current Index to Legal Periodicals (CILP) would be interrupted. We are working with Exceed Digital Systems on an API solution and hope to launch no later than Nov. 1. Thanks for your patience as we work to solve this issue.

Are you looking for an excuse to quit shaving? Look no further. November is no shave month, aka Noshember! Who knew there was a whole month dedicated to unchecked hair growth? This likely sprouted from the Movember movement, organized to raise awareness about men's health and more specifically, prostate cancer. There's still time to catch up if you toss your blades today! Happy grooming!
