Biography

Emerita Professor Marie Newman was the Associate Director of the Pace Law Library from 1993 until 1998, when she became the Acting Director. She was appointed Director of the Law Library in 1999. She taught Advanced Legal Research, an upper-level elective course. She has written in the areas of women and bankruptcy, legal education, and international sales of goods. Her article published in the Law Library Journal concerns quality control procedures for legal databases on the Internet, a subject on which she spoke at the 1998 meeting of the Association of American Law Schools. The article won the Law Library Journal Article of the Year Award in July 2000.

Professor Newman began her career in law librarianship at New York Law School, where she served as head of reference services and as an Adjunct Professor of Law teaching Advanced Legal Research. Immediately before coming to Haub Law, she served as Associate Director for Public Services at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School. As an Adjunct Lecturer there, she taught Research in Federal and State Law.

Professor Newman served as a member of the West Legal Research and Writing Advisory Board, and on the advisory board of LLMC, a consortium of libraries devoted to providing economical access to a wide range of legal and law-related materials in digital form. Professor Newman served as the Database Editor for Haub Laws award-winning on the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
