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:
- Please contact the team of research librarians via email anytime at reference.law@yale.edu (link sends email) (please add "ref @ law-yale.libanswers.com" to your contact list to help ensure our response goes to your inbox).
- Schedule a consultation with us at https://calendly.com/yllreference/research-consultation-spring-202 (links is external). You are welcome to reach out directly to the individual research librarians listed below.
- Stop by the reference desk on L3 in the main reading room: M-F, 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM EST.
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):
