Law

This research guide highlights the library law collection to support curriculum and programs across all disciplines, especially for the following programs at CMU.

• Public Law Minor
• Lawmaking and Legal Process (certificate)
• Legal Studies Minor
• Law and Economics Major

The law collection ranges from two subscribed law databases to government law resources at different levels. It can be challenging for students to use some law resources because those materials are different from other scholarly sources like journals and books. We, the subject librarians provide library instruction on how to use the library law collection to conduct research and access primary and secondary law materials. Therefore, we strongly recommend faculty to schedule library instruction for their law related classes and remind students to contact us for research help.
