Empowering Albertans to Deal with their Family Law Issues: Using LegalAve.ca in your Library

Description

LegalAve.ca is a new free website that helps Albertans learn about their legal matters and how to resolve them. This session will go over the key features of LegalAve.ca that library staff can use to find legal information for their patrons without crossing the line into legal advice. Our approach to promoting the website provincially will be outlined, along with lessons learned.
Learning objectives:

  • Find accurate, reliable legal information
  • Explore features of LegalAve.ca designed for library staff
  • Better serve diverse audiences, including Aboriginal people, immigrants, and low-income Albertans
