General International Law Research Tools

Teresa Miguel-Stearns

The Law Library provides access to two electronic resources useful for conducting general international, foreign and comparative legal research.

Kluwer’s International Encyclopaedia of Laws provides Country-by-Country Overviews, searchable PDFs, RSS feeds for updates and electronic Table of Contents (Etoc) alerts.  The law library subscribes to the sections on Criminal Law, Media Law, Family and Succession Law, and Environmental Law. The law library print collection also consists of national monographs on various topics.

Oxford Bibliographies Online includes short scholarly topical commentaries and bibliographies of seminal treatises on specific topics relating to International Law and Criminology.  Yale links provide direct interface to Yale network resources.
