[blindlaw] Pulling for Law Review

[Laura Wolk]

I second everything Tai said. Except for the caveat that if certain
articles were very print source heavy, I simply just switched off of
them onto other articles. My law review team was very willing to be
flexible with me in that way, as they would with, for instance,
students who were studying abroad and so did not have access to ILL or
to our print library. Alternatively, sometimes I would offer to check
longer ranges of footnotes on articles in exchange for someone else
taking on my print sources. Again, this was also a practice
implemented for students studying abroad. I think the goal is to come
up with equitable yet flexible solutions.
