The library utilizes leading edge technology to expand the scope of materials beyond its extensive collections, bringing the latest outside resources and sending the most current legal developments to its constituents on the Internet. The Collections Among its more than 550,000 volumes, the library includes all federal, state and territorial court decisions and statutes for the United States, the British Commonwealth and many foreign jurisdictions. The library s extensive journal and treatise collections include works in the fields of history, economics, government and other social and behavioral sciences relevant to legal research. Traditionally strong collections in international and foreign law support the growing interest in the global economy and international relations. The library s approach to information access is an important part of the environment where technology supports the classroom.
Law students study at workstation-carrels that support use of both print and electronic resources.
Students have 24-hour access to the library with support of the library and computing staff on evenings and weekends whenever classes are in session. The library supports the use of these databases by providing students with instruction in using those databases in their research and writing class.
