The Yale Daily News covers Forbes Smiley’s pre-trial conference, which took place yesterday.

The International Herald Tribune reprinted yesterday’s New York Times story (see previous entry), in case an alternate URL is needed. The Toronto Star also reprinted the story.

Smiley, a well-known map dealer, has been charged with stealing seven rare maps from Yale’s Beinecke Library. Smiley pleaded not guilty in August; see the Map Thefts category archive for earlier coverage.
