Legal Research and Law Library Management
Description: Whether you are a lawyer, a law librarian or information specialist, now you can organize, locate
and evaluate the most valuable legal resources.
This newly revised edition of Legal Research and Law Library Management retains the best
elements of the previous edition while bringing you new, up-to-date coverage of the latest in law
library management, including: collection development; controlling the cost of obtaining and
maintaining legal information; strategic planning; retaining a law library consultant; online legal
research; the changing role of academic law reviews in legal scholarship; and copyright law and
“fair use” of research materials.
Legal Research and Law Library Management includes over 30 topical research guides containing
detailed listings of treatises, journals and Web sites. These are designed to serve as a resource in
collection development decision-making, a source of pricing information for budgetary purpose, and
a quick and comprehensive reference tool for legal researchers.
This book is updated as needed, generally two times each year.
