LexisNexis Partner Webinar: The Value Behind the Answer: Showcasing Your Work and Building Your Brand

Includes a Live Web Event on 12/09/2026 at 1:00 PM (CST)

You’re the person who tracks down the hard-to-find authority, news, company background, and generally hard to find information. You connect the dots across cases and client matters and help others understand what resources are needed by the attorneys and others. You even may be the person to assess practical applications of AI. But do the people you support see the expertise behind those answers—or the value of the library that makes the work possible?

In this AALL and LexisNexis partner webinar, we’re turning the spotlight on the law librarians and legal researchers behind the work. Our panel will talk about making your contributions visible, finding the words to describe your impact, and building a professional brand that feels like you. Whether you want to be better known within your organization or more involved in the wider legal information community, you’ll leave with a few practical steps you can actually put into motion—no massive LinkedIn following required.

TARGET AUDIENCE:

Firm, academic, and government law librarians

TAKEAWAYS:

Communicate the expertise and judgment behind their research in ways that show their impact and the library’s value.
Build a professional brand that reflects their strengths and raises their visibility within their organization and the legal information community.
