The Alaska State Court Law Library serves the legal information needs of the State of Alaska by selecting, organizing and facilitating access to legal research resources and judicial system information. Resources are housed in seventeen branch libraries , with a substantial portion located in the Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau and Ketchikan collections. All other branches are unstaffed. The Anchorage Law Library is open to the public seven days a week, including evenings and weekends, and serves the legal community as well as the general public.
Library assistants staff the library during all other hours the library is open.
Our collection includes all state and federal statutes, the National Reporter System, Alaskan and federal legislative history materials, an extensive American law review collection, legal encyclopedias, looseleaf services, a broad range of treatises, and a government depository collection. We have superseded copies of all Alaska statutes, administrative regulations and court rules. We also receive decisions from several Alaska state agencies. The library's catalog is not yet available on the Internet. The library does not provide change.
