As part of the Oxford University Library Service, the Bodleian
Law Library benefits from the deposit of legal materials
published in Great Britain , and shares in the advantages of being
part of the largest university library in the
country. The Law Library has a close relationship with the Faculty and
occupies the same building, the St Cross Building.
Unlike some other parts of the Oxford University Library Service, the Law
Library offers almost all of its holdings - some 440,000 items - on open
shelves in a purpose-built space. As well as meeting the needs of
undergraduate law students, the library serves a large community of
postgraduate readers and academics in their research requirements. In
particular it has excellent US, French, German and Commonwealth materials, strong European
and international law collections, and extensive holdings in the philosophy
and sociology of law, criminology and Roman law.
To compliment the paper collection, the law library provides extensive networked
online legal resources, with databases from many jurisdictions and covering many
legal topics. The full listing can be viewed online at http://www.ouls.ox.ac.uk/law/e-resources/databases and
these resources are accessible from any location throughout the world.
