In the last two weeks, two public legal information websites in BC have been retired and now redirect visitors to Clicklaw. The Electronic Law Library was developed over 10 years ago for public librarians in BC to assist people in finding the laws and legal information on the Internet. In 2002, LawLINK was designed as a gateway into legal information for low income and marginalized communities.
Both sites were developed by the Legal Services Society, and were excellent resources. They set the stage for a site like Clicklaw to take the next step in providing enhanced features and consolidating legal information on one site. We recognize the great work done by the Legal Services Society, and are honoured to continue the tradition of providing the public in BC with access to legal information.
