Get Research Help

Welcome to the Law Library! The research librarians are available to assist Yale Law School and Yale University students, faculty, and staff. We offer a variety of research services, including research consultations, research training, and research assistance when you are writing a paper, serving on the law review, or working in a clinic or as a research assistant. We also offer several legal research classes.

We can be reached in several ways:

Although we are not open to the public, a publicly accessible law library is located nearby at the New Haven Superior Court (link is external):

235 Church St.
New Haven, CT 06510
203) 503-6828

Further information on free and low-cost legal help in Connecticut, along with lists of public law libraries, is available via the Law Librarians of New England's Legal Link website: https://llne.org/legal-link/connecticut/ (link is external)

We look forward to hearing from you,
