Mick Reed was the guest of honor this week on SAVE Radio! He is an Americorps member in the community with the state BAR association as a liaison to the law library. He joined us to talk about using the law as a resource in the community and how the state has organized programs for outreach and education on the law.
Right now Mick is working with Celebrate Law in the Library, a program that partners the BAR association with the state library to give the librarians a tool kit with which to develop a legal education program. This program will help community members tackle a wide range of problems such as landlord/tenant issues, finding representation, and how to navigate the court system. More details are available at webjunction.org.
Mick is also drafting a legal resource guide for returning veterans. This work will help veterans readjusting to civilian life answer any legal questions that may have arisen while overseas. Currently the project is in the information gathering phase which should wrap up this summer. When finished, it will be published online and as a hard copy available at your local library.
This week's tunes (a tribute to the '60s):
Otis Redding - Respect
Vanity Fare - Hitchin' a Ride
Gerry and the Pacemakers - I Like It
Diana Ross - Where Did Our Love Go
The Animals - House of the Rising Sun
The Beatles - I've Just Seen A Face
The Rolling Stones - (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction

The Beach Boys - Good Vibrations

Small Faces - Itchycoo Park
The Classics IV - Stormy
Herman's Hermits - Mrs. Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter
P.S. - You may notice that many of these songs are short in comparison to what we listen to today. That is because many artists of the era relied on releasing singles on 7", 45 rpm vinyls that were popular with the jukebox culture of the time. These records had very limited space and as such artists had to accommodate for this restriction.
