Virtual Networks
Most Akron Bar committee and section members have available to them the ability to communicate easily with each other through the eCommunities. Both provide an efficient way to get in touch with members when there's no time for face-to-face communication.
The tutorial videos below introduce eCommunities and Listservs and how to use them.
