New Articles Registry Launched in British Columbia
On July 15, 2008, the Canadian Bar Association BC Branch (CBABC) and the Law Society of British Columbia launched an Articles Registry that is hosted on the CBABC website. The Registry responds directly to the needs of law firms and law students in British Columbia. Law students can search for available articles by interest, location and start date and law firms can post multiple articles with varying criteria. Read the news release.
