Another online law review companion, this time from Columbia. Here is the announcment:
The Columbia Law Review is Pleased to Announce Sidebar.
The term "sidebar" has different meanings in different contexts. In a courtroom, when attorneys and judges have sidebar conferences, they engage in frank discussion of a live legal issue. When journalists add a sidebar to a story, they provide deeper insight or a fresh perspective on an issue covered in the accompanying text.
Sidebar, the new online publication of the Columbia Law Review, serves both functions. With the new site, the Review joins a growing list of legal publications, practitioners, scholars, and bloggers who engage in legal discourse online. In addition, the site provides a new take on the issues tackled by scholars in the pages of the Review’s print edition, by inviting experts in a variety of fields to contribute their own views.
Sidebar brings the Review into the Internet age, taking advantage of the speed and dynamism this medium allows. By creating a forum for shorter, more informal pieces, we hope Sidebar will transform academic literature into an engaging discussion.
We trust that you will enjoy Sidebar as much as you enjoy the Columbia Law Review and that you will become a contributor. For more information, please contact editor@clrsidebar.org.
