Share this post:

This week’s interview is with Chayada Polpun, a summer intern working in the Global Legal Research Center of the Law Library of Congress. It is part of a series of interviews that introduce our summer interns to In Custodia Legis readers. You may have noticed that Chayada missed the interns’ group photo we recently published in a Pic of the Week post, Law Library Summer Interns – 2013 EditionYou can expect to see more of her, though; she is working on a post to highlight the Thai legal resources in the Law Library for our Global Legal Collection Highlights series. Stay tuned!
