[blindlaw] bluebook question

[Tai Tomasi]

As Chris Stewart recently suggested here on list, I recommend copying and pasting out of the online bluebook into a word document to make yourself a "cheat sheet" of most commonly used citation formats. When I tried copying and pasting from the online version, formatting was preserved. You can then use screen reader commands to see the formats of the text.

I am interested in putting together a guidance document on bluebook use for blind law students, including tips and best practices for answering questions like these. If anyone is interested in assisting me, please contact me.

Subject: [blindlaw] bluebook question

I am a first year law student and I am completing my second semester. I would like to know how to use the bluebook if you are blind. I have tried to use the on-line version of the bluebook, but I find it hard to use.
