Good reads for Judge Robertson

As federal district judge James Robertson mulls a trial ruling in Schroer v. Library of Congress, two new scholarly articles argue (along somewhat different lines) for a broad interpretation of Title VII to protect transgender employees:

• Katie Koch & Richard A. Bales, Transgender Employment Discrimination, forthcoming in UCLA Women's L.J.
• L. Camille Hebert, Transforming Transsexual and Transgender Rights, forthcoming in Wm. & Mary J. Women & L.

Some evidence that legal academia has not (yet) become totally irrelevant to the law.
