Kennesaw State opens new law library

Kennesaw State University’s College of Continuing and Profession Education will unveil its new Joe R. Edwards law library on April 24.

The library is named for the long-time Atlanta attorney known for defending blue-collar and poor clients who donated his law books to Kennesaw State. Edwards died of heart failure in 1999.

The new facility features more than 2,000 books worth about $35,000, and will serve KSU’s paralegal program.

Edwards grandson, Johnny Edwards, is an investigative reporter for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
