VALL President Anthony Ikwueme, VASLA President Heather Enderle and Jeffrey A. Brauch, dean and professor at Regent University School of Law, all had an opportunity to welcome attendees.
The program started with VALL's own Sally Wambold from the University of Richmond Law Library who presented A Sampler of Preservation Tools.
This was followed by Carl Childs from the Library of Virginia who spoke on Digital Preservation Efforts at the Library of Virginia.
During a break, attendees were taken on a tour of the Regent University Law Library. Renovations to the library had been completed in August of 2009.
