: Slaw.caTarlton Collection: Law in Pop Culture
By Simon Fodden
The wonderful Tarlton Law Library at the University of Texas in Austin is developing a collection dedicated to the portrayal of law in popular culture, the goal of which “is to provide as broad a picture as possible of the image of the lawyer in the United States and British Commonwealth.” There is material from print, TV and movies, with only cartoons missing — an important aspect, I should have thought, but one that may be difficult because of copyright.
The collection circulates to those with a Tarlton library card, of course, but for the rest of us there are materials available online, starting with a bibiliography and including a searchable collection of e-texts. As well, for the truly determined, there’s inter-library loan.
