Stand Up for Your Rights

Stand Up for Your Rights

Do you know what to do if someone starts posting threatening messages to library staff on social media? What if they are filming themselves in the library and refuse to stop?  

With the rise in anti-social and threatening behaviour towards library staff, ALIA is pleased to offer Members the opportunity to hear from leading criminal barrister Nicholas Stewart. Nicholas will walk participants through some key legal rights and obligations.

A Zoom link to join the meeting will be sent to you the day before the webinar.

Presenter 

Nicholas Stewart is the crime partner at Sydney LGBTQIA+ law firm, Dowson Turco Lawyers. He is also Vice President of Australian Lawyers for Human Rights, Chair of the Women’s Advancement Subcommittee at the Law Society of NSW and was the 2022 recipient of the Law Society of NSW President’s Medal. Nicholas is a Friend of Distinction at the University of Technology, Sydney, and the recipient of the Elizabeth Hastings Memorial Human Rights Award from UTS and the recipient of two UTS Law Alumni Awards. Nicholas holds a Bachelor of Commerce from Western Sydney University and a Bachelor of Laws (Graduate Law) from UTS.
