When we are busy, however, we may not be able to provide reference services for all members of the public. When this happens, patrons are encouraged to read the library guides that explain how to use our resources. Payment is required at the time of service. The Law Library staff does not and cannot provide legal advice, but we can refer patrons to a list of various legal clinics or other resources where legal advice may be available. See also our Guide to Finding Legal Help in Ontario.

In all cases of online searching, charges will still be levied for searches that yield no citations or relevant text. The Bora Laskin Law Library provides document delivery services to law students and faculty at the University law school for material not available from the Law Library but available elsewhere. Members of the public should therefore check to see if their local library is willing or able to place an interlibrary loan through us on their behalf. The primary purpose of the Bora Laskin Law Library is to support the teaching, learning and research needs of students and professors at the Faculty of Law. It is also open to all members of the University of Toronto community.
