Roberts Hearings Available Live on the Web

From Electronic Services Librarian,
Robert Weiner: Law Library News

On Monday, September 12, the Senate Judiciary
Commitee is scheduled to begin confirmation hearings
on John Roberts, President's Bush's nominee to become
the next chief justice of the United States Supreme
Court. Live coverage of the hearings are available on
the web through several sources, including C-Span3 at
http://www.c-span.org/. The hearings provide an
opportunity for the American public to consider Roberts'
views on the major issues shaping society today.
In the past half-century, only two other presidents have
named a chief justice.
