The Online Faculty Scholarship Workshop: A Social In-House Repository for Early (pre-SSRN) Drafts

Submitted by Tom Boone, Loyola Law School, Los Angeles on Tue, 02/15/2011 - 5:04pm
Presenter(s): 
Tom Boone, Loyola Law School, Los Angeles

There are limited in-person opportunities for law school faculty to workshop quarter- and half-baked ideas with colleagues. Sites like SSRN provide an electronic option to solicit feedback on drafts, but due to those sites' wide reach, many faculty only post substantially finished work, preferring to keep developing work under wraps from the world at large. To fill the gap, Loyola Law School is developing an in-house repository for article drafts. Faculty can post ideas and drafts electronically, granting access to individually selected colleagues or to the entire faculty.
