As part of the Bodleian Library, the Bodleian Law Library benefits
from legal deposit of legal materials published in the British Isles,
and shares in the infrastructural advantages of the largest university
library in the country. Although not managed by the Law Faculty,
the Law Library has a close relationship with it and inhabits the
same building, the St Cross Building.
Unlike some other parts
of the Bodleian, the Law Library offers almost all of its paper
holdings - some 400,000 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 more advanced users with
more sophisticated requirements. In particular it has excellent
US and Commonwealth materials, strong European and international
collections, and extensive holdings in the philosophy and sociology
of law and in criminology.
Oxford University Library Services
(of which the Bodleian is a part) also provides an extensive collection
of online research resources for law and many other disciplines,
most of them distributed across the university network.
