Legal Research

Law Librarian's New Course Book!

Mary Rumsey, who handles foreign and international legal research here at the Law Library, has published a book on researching foreign and international law. Her co-author is Marci Hoffman of the University of California-Berkeley, who was Mary?s immediate predecessor as the foreign and international law librarian here.

Martinus Nijhoff/Brill is publishing the book this month. Its title is International and Foreign Legal Research: A Coursebook.

The book covers research on treaties, foreign law, customary international law, the UN, EU, human rights, trade, intellectual property, environmental law, and other topics. Its companion website offers research exercises and useful web links.
