Abstrakt: The article presents information on Kimberli Morris who is program manager for the Iraqi Legal Education Reform Project, a project in library and information (Baghdad) of the International Human Rights Law Institute at Chicago's DePaul University College of Law. Although her work began well before she went to Iraq, Morris arrived in Baghdad in late February. On a stopover in Jordan, the flak jacket in her bag created quite a stir. She personally thought that is pretty funny that a flak jacket was packed in among all of her books, "Law Library Collection Development Policies," "Law Librarians Abroad," and "Digital Libraries." Prior to becoming the program manager of library and information in Baghdad, Morris was head of electronic services at George Washington University Law School. In 1997-1998, she was an ALA/USAID fellow to the Parliament of Uganda, where she lectured at the East African School of Library and Information Science in Kampala. Moths earned her MLS from the Indiana University School of Library and Information Science in 1994. In 1992, she received her J.D. from the University's School of Law in Bloomington.
