Fall2016: reports, books and research routes

38 additional records from 22 reviewed pages: scholarship, mentoring, meetings and exact references with page locators.

What was recovered

The 22 Fall2016 pages could be rendered from objects preserved in the truncated file. Readable passages were checked against the images: reports, 38 additional records, references and book descriptions. The original PDF remains incomplete; damaged fields and conflicting dates are not filled in by guesswork.

The bulletin’s AGM report describes the Calgary Faculty of Law meeting of 28–30 May 2016, with 114 registrations recorded a few days before the conference and 35 panels. Registrations are not verified attendance.

Source page 4

The report identifies two joint CALT sessions: the graduate-student Methods and Approaches Café and a plenary concerning TRC recommendations 27 and 28.

Source page 11

The journal editors’ report identifies volume 31(2) as a predominantly French-language special issue on financial transfers following divorce, separating need, restitution and compensation as analytical frames.

How to read the counts

  1. Record the observation date alongside any count.
  2. Separate registrations, attendance and submissions; leave unreported figures unknown.
  3. Identify distinct formats: research panel, methods café, joint plenary.
  4. For a journal issue, separate issue identifier, language coverage and intellectual question from a current submission call.

Worked reading record

A record can say 35 panels and 114 registrations before the meeting. It cannot calculate actual delegates, publication outcomes or satisfaction from those figures. In a reading note for 31(2), use three columns—need, restitution, compensation—and record how each article defines its frame; the issue title alone establishes no applicable legal rule.

Turn the references into a reading list

Choose a question: reasons for decisions, disability, religion, child protection or legal education. Record author, title and citation, then locate the publication with its publisher or a university repository. Confirm the final version of work described as forthcoming in 2016. Use the reading template below to record material, method and limits. A title listed in a bulletin does not establish the publication’s findings.

What remains uncertain

Some contents, biography and officer-role fields are damaged. Old contacts, support arrangements and calls do not establish services or competitions open today. The conflicting January dates in the bulletin are resolved below using the final programme and an independent UNB record: 20–21 January 2017.

Unity in the Eye of the Beholder? Reasons for Decision in Theory and PracticeMcGill’s biography names the inaugural Richard Hart Prize at the University of Cambridge’s Public Law Conference 2016. This confirms the award name, without equating the 2016 presentation to the differently expanded 2020 article title.

Versions and research material

The Allard repository describes this version as a working paper dated 2016 and keeps a forthcoming citation; distinguish this repository version from the planned 2017 issue in the bulletin.

Érudit confirms volume 61(3),461–509 and DOI 10.7202/1037965 ar. A separate citation line on the HTML says 60:3, while the issue and formal reference say 61; use the latter with this discrepancy documented.

The complete UQAR-hosted article identifies a public/private research network addressing knowledge gaps around possible oil and gas development in the Gulf of St Lawrence. Its abstract describes planned interdisciplinary work, not measured environmental outcomes.

Calgary 2016: university records

Two university newsletters document three further contributions. A chair is not automatically a paper author, and a shared topic does not establish that two people belonged to the same panel.

Mary Hemmings · 2016-05-30Socio-Legal and Historical Scholarship: Digital Opportunities and Challenges. Thompson Rivers University’s June 2016 research newsletter records Mary Hemmings presenting this paper at the CLSA annual meeting in Calgary on 30 May. The record adds a specific digital-scholarship contribution to the meeting’s documented topics.
Wendy Hulko · 2016-05-29Law, Dementia and Aging: Hard Choices. The same university newsletter identifies Wendy Hulko as chair of this Calgary panel on 29 May 2016. Its title documents a law-and-aging strand; it does not establish a present-day clinical or legal recommendation.
Margaret Hall · 2016Dementia, Advance Directives, “Heroic Measures”; and Physician Assisted Death: Autonomy, Identity, Person-hood and Equality. Thompson Rivers University’s July 2016 newsletter records Margaret Hall delivering this paper within a CLSA Calgary session. It complements the documented dementia-and-aging panel without proving that Hall spoke in that exact panel.

Fredericton: resolving the January dates

The bulletin announced conflicting January dates. The final meeting programme schedules Friday 20 and Saturday 21 January 2017. Erin Morton’s UNB curriculum vitae independently lists the symposium on 20–21 January. Keep the bulletin’s wording when quoting it; use 20–21 January for the programme record. Neither source supplies the missing end of the Fall 2016 PDF.

Two McKee talks: compare the exact records

The Summer 2016 research notebook from Sherbrooke’s Faculty of Law independently records two talks already listed in our meeting programmes. Its retrospective record supports the speaker, title and individual day. It supplies neither talk’s text. Similar topics are not enough to combine the two events.

  1. Start a separate record for each title and event; do not merge them by author or shared platform names.
  2. Copy the day from the individual record and retain the full meeting range separately.
  3. Compare the prospective programme with the retrospective university record. Cite both when they establish different parts of the record.
  4. Keep research questions separate from results: a title does not establish which policy was recommended or tested.

16 January 2016: Waterloo, regulatory challenges. 30 May 2016: Calgary, policy argument. The common author and platforms do not make these a single presentation. The notebook is a second source, not the missing end of Fall2016.

The joint day: compare two programme versions

The complete six-page final CALT programme records Monday 30 May 2016 as a joint day with CLSA. Pages 2 and 6 can be compared with CLSA’s Calgary programme. The CALT file has a repeated Tuesday heading above its Monday block; read the dated session block rather than assigning every page to that repeated heading.

  1. Keep a column for each programme version and transcribe only the field you are comparing.
  2. Classify the difference: a wider time block, an additional name or different spelling. Do not silently select one version.
  3. Use a post-event record for a claim that somebody actually presented. For an unresolved roster, report both lists and the remaining uncertainty.
CALT final programme pp. 2, 6 versus CLSA Calgary sessions 9.a, 9.b and 10
Methods café · planned scopeCALT page 2 separates breakfast, 08:15–09:00, from breakout discussions, 09:00–10:45. CLSA’s session 9.a gives an overall 08:15–11:00 block and additional rooms. These are different levels of scheduling detail, not evidence of the actual finish time.
Reconciliation plenary · scheduled namesBoth programmes schedule the plenary at 11:00–13:00. CALT lists Larry Chartrand, Aimée Craft, Karen Drake, Rebecca Johnson and Sarah Morales. CLSA additionally names Gillian Calder. Retain the source for each list; do not turn a listed name into verified attendance.
Digital-scholarship session · list differenceCALT page 6 names R. Blake Brown, while CLSA session 9.b names Simon Devereaux. The two lists also use Amanda Kaladelfos and Andy Kaladelfos respectively. Preserve each source’s spelling; this comparison does not decide the final roster or identify a name change.
Three checks when programme versions differ: schedule, names and delivery
Original comparison diagram. Source: the two Calgary 2016 programmes; it does not reconstruct actual attendance.

Compare the defined time block, keep each scheduled list attributed, and use retrospective evidence for an actual presentation. A programme is evidence of a plan.

Four-part reading map separating registrations, session formats, journal issue and outcomes not reported.
Based on the 2016 AGM and journal reports; no attendance or impact result is inferred.

The report records pre-event registrations and session formats. The journal report identifies an issue and its themes. Neither passage reports participant satisfaction or a measured research impact.
