Law Library resources & services for remote study

Even though you are taking classes and studying remotely, there are still many resources available from the Law Library to help you. This guide gives you a place to start.

The Law Library's home page is your gateway to the online resources at the law library. Here you'll find:

• Links to commonly-used online legal resources and links to a complete list of all our databases by name and by subject area.
  • As an NIU student, you can use resources from the University Libraries too.
• Links to Libguides to help you with various aspects of legal research. Our most popular guides are the Basic Legal Research Guide and Sample Bluebook Citations.
• A quick search box for HuskieSearch, the library's discovery system (library catalog and more). See the menu to your left for a complete guide to using HuskieSearch.

Can't find what you need online? We can get you print materials from the Law Library, from the NIU Libraries, from the over 90 "I-Share" academic libraries in the state of Illinois, and from out-of-state too.
