New ELS Bibliography Database

Through the collaborative efforts of Cornell and UCLA, there is now available a bibliographic database of empirical legal studies and scholarship: the ELS Bibliography. It is available at:
http://www.law.ucla.edu/home/apps/els/

The database is a work-in-progress, and we welcome any comments or suggestions that users may have. The database allows author, title, and subject searching, as well as limiting by year. For more background information on the project, be sure to check the database description.

Empirical legal studies are increasingly important in the legal academy as it evolves to become more interdisciplinary. Moreover, empirical legal scholarship has direct relevance to the discussions of legal issues in today's public and political discourse. Thus, we hope that the ELS Bibliography will be a welcome resource.
