Sorry, Jim – didn’t find any Canadian info back when I was researching this. But if you find anything, please leave a comment so other readers know, too. Thx.

Hi Matt…

now the only thing is, I’m a canuck! Any ideas on where we’d find our own Local info?

Hey Dan – that BBC link is asking for a username and password. Do you know if that’s permanent?

Thx for the link, Philip – adding it now.

There is also my round-up of Paul Bradshaw's session on legal issues although it only scratches the surface. The BBC resource looks to be the best place to go at the moment.

Amazed that a chat at a social media cafe and a chance comment on a blog could have led to such a useful repository of information.

Since posting the BBC have opened up their College of Journalism website.

It’s brilliant and full of skills hyperlocal bloggers could make use of.

This is a link for a more detailed account of UK defamation and, most importantly, the defences to it.
