Annotation/Abstract:
In order to better prepare law students to perform legal research outside of academia, legal research instructors must connect with contemporary legal research practice. A desire to make such a connection led the authors to form an attorney advisory board known as the Practitioners' Council to discuss legal research practice. The authors discuss the process of making the Practitioners' Council a reality and how it has improved their legal research instruction.
