Hello and welcome to the official website of the Great Lakes Ohio Valley Association of Law Librarians (GLOVALL)! 

GLOVALL was formed from the merger of the Ohio Regional and Michigan Associations and is a chapter of the American Association of Law Libraries (AALL) that includes libraries in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, and Ohio. It was formed in 1949 "to further the development and usefulness of law libraries and to stimulate a spirit of mutual helpfulness among law libraries of this region." The newest edition of the GLOVALL Newsletter can be found using the menu at the top of the page. 

Please look around and see what GLOVALL and its members are up to! Reach out if you have any questions and if you're interested in joining, please see the application information below.
