It's once again time for Lawyers in Libraries!

Lawyers in Libraries week is Oct 26-31, and OPPL has four Ask-A-Lawyer sessions scheduled for our patrons.

These FREE Ask-a-Lawyer sessions are two-hour events where patrons meet one- on-one with an attorney for 15 minutes each to ask questions about their individual legal issues. Volunteer attorneys provide as much information and guidance as they feel comfortable communicating.

Ouachita Parish Public Library's schedule for this event are as follows:

Tuesday, October 27th from 11am-1pm--->Main branch library (sessions located in the conference room).

Thursday, October 29th from 1pm-3pm ---> Ouachita Valley branch library.

Monday, October 26th from 9am-11am and Tuesday, October 27th from 3pm-5pm ---> Ollie Burns branch library.
