Introduction to JP Boyd on Family Law
Clicklaw Wikibooks has teamed up with Vancouver lawyer John-Paul Boyd to turn his popular family law website, www.bcfamilylawresource.com, into this new Clicklaw Wikibook title, JP Boyd on Family Law. The migration of John-Paul's website into this new format preserves the accessibility, scope and tone of the original, which provided free family law information to more than 27,000 British Columbians a month and had been published for more than a decade.
As a Clicklaw Wikibook, JP Boyd on Family Law harnesses the versatility and strength of MediaWiki, the same open-source wiki platform that powers Wikipedia. A book creator function allows libraries and individual readers to print as little or as much of this wiki as they want, in convenient, user-friendly PDF or book formats that expand the reach of this resource to benefit British Columbians online and off.
A collaborative, community resource
John-Paul Boyd continues at the helm of JP Boyd on Family Law but is no longer alone in his efforts. John-Paul is joined by an editorial team composed of experienced family law lawyers who are committed to delivering comprehensive, useful and easy to understand family law information. The editorial team provides an enriching diversity of opinion and perspective that further improves the depth and inclusiveness of this resource. The wiki platform's strong support for collaboration enables the editorial team to nimbly respond to changes in the law, making updates immediately available to readers of the wikibook online at wiki.clicklaw.bc.ca.
John-Paul and the wikibook's editorial team are guided and assisted by an advisory committee composed of senior family law lawyers, public and legal librarians, and educators.
