Getting to Know the Law Library's Research Guides

Did you know that Hamline Law Library has 56 (an counting!) Research Guides? Our Research Guides can give you a refresher tutorial in how to do basic legal research, help you find things on the Law Library web site, and tell you about in-depth, specific tools to use for seminar research. On the Law Library home page, look near the center-top to find the Research Guides.

Cake vs. Pie

What is this you say? It's the Law Library version of NCAA "March Madness" without the anxiety or gambling. There is enough anxiety in law schools so we offer a sweet solution. The contestants have been selected now all you have to do is vote for your favorite at each stage. The successful dessert will be announced in April and YOU will be able to savor the sweet success - the winning dessert will be served in the Library on April 6th.

Vote often for your choices!

They are Here!

Anti trust? Bankruptcy? Torts? These are some of the courses you may take in law school and sometimes you need assistance understanding the fine points of the law. Well your Law Library has the entire Understanding series by LexisNexis. Look for a volume on the library catalog and stop by the Circulation Desk to get your text.

A Good Read, A Good Movie

DID YOU KNOW? The law library has a small popular reading collection available to law students, faculty and staff. Feel free to browse the shelves. Books can be checked out at the circulation desk.
We also have a collection of DVDs about the law. Some are funny, some are serious, but all will take your mind off studying for a while. Enjoy with a bowl of popcorn and your beverage of choice!
