SUMMARY:Legal Reference 2.0: Navigating Maryland Resources
DESCRIPTION:What is the difference between legal research and legal advice? 
 How can we help patrons find the right forms without crossing the line? If 
 you’ve ever felt uncertain when a patron asks for legal help—or if you 
 want to learn more about legal research—this session is for you. \n\nJoin 
 us for Legal Reference 2.0\, a practical guide to handling legal inquiries 
 with confidence and precision. We’ll break down the basics of legal 
 reference\, including the "golden rule" of providing information rather 
 than advice to avoid the unauthorized practice of law. \n\nIn this 
 session\, you will:\n\n\n	\n	Navigate Legal Forms: Learn how to find free\, 
 Maryland-specific forms for everything from real estate to family 
 law.\n	\n	\n	Connect with Referrals: Get a curated list of reliable 
 Maryland legal aid and referral services for patrons.\n	\n	\n	Explore 
 current and new trends on the horizon\, such as using generative AI for 
 legal research\, and how to prepare patrons effectively.\n	\n\n\n \n\nCE 
 Contact Hours for Maryland Public Libraries = 1 hour \n\n
