This would be in tune with the resounding success that characterized the participation of some American Scholar Law-Librarians in the seminar organized by the Nigerian Association of Law Libraries in 1981 at the Nigerian Law School, Lagos. Such eminent Law Librarians as Professor Julius Marke, Professor Ervin Surrency, and Mr. Philip Cohen, the President of the New York based Oceana Publications, delivered papers and led discussions at the seminar. Some British experts in the law book trade as represented by the Sweet and Maxwell also took part in the seminar. The changing economic and fiscal conditions notwithstanding, there seems to be every cause to be optimistic that such bodies as the United States Information Service (USIS), the British Council and some reputable Law Book Publishers and renown academic and research law libraries overseas could assist in making the right calibre of resource personnel available.Google Scholar
