Every Spring, for a limited time, LawMatters partners with Legal Aid BC to offer public libraries The Legal Display Kit. For those who may not already have a kit in their library, the Legal Display Kit provides you with publications from Legal Aid BC, in the form of print booklets and handouts. Our goal is to make it easier for you promote these booklets and handouts in a legal display, providing an access point to legal information patrons can take away for themselves. And best of all – it's free!
The order form includes titles, subjects, dimensions, and currency dates - plus they are grouped together into a 'Basic Kit' and subject specific add-ons, making it easy to order. Multilingual options are also listed - you need only check off which ones you would like.
Basic Kit includes freebies on:
-
General Legal Aid
-
Aboriginal Law
-
Family Law
-
Family Violence
-
Child Protection
-
Criminal Law
Specialized add-ons include:
-

Parents Legal Centre materials (available to libraries in communities with Parents Legal Centres)
To place an order, just download the form, fill it out and send it back to us at lawmatters@courthouselibrary.ca; Legal Aid will send the publications directly to your library. If you have any questions, contact us at the email above or at publications@lss.bc.ca.
Currently this kit includes Legal Aid BC publications only. You can add other publications (from People’s Law School, for example) to your Starter Display or re-stock titles from Crown Publications.
