The Law Library

The Center for Law and Justice Library (CLJ), the most comprehensive public law library in New Jersey, provides the students and faculty of the School of Law with access to major full-text legal databases including Westlaw, LexisNexis, HeinOnline, Bloomberg BNA, and the Making of Modern Law. Those databases include not only the current statutes and regulations and complete case law of the federal government and all the states, but also extensive collections of scholarly commentary, practitioners' treatises, historical legal material, and material on foreign law. Students and faculty also have access to the many databases and electronic journals in other disciplines provided by the Rutgers University Libraries. The CLJ Library also maintains extensive printed book collections, including primary sources and finding tools for federal law and the law of selected states, many major law journals, and many legal and law-related monographs. The library serves as a depository library for both New Jersey and federal government documents, and includes the Don M. Gottfredson Library of Criminal Justice, one of the leading collections in the world. As of mid-2012, the collections of the CLJ Library totaled about 900,600 volumes and volume-equivalents, including 375,000 print volumes, 171,100 microform volume-equivalents, 107,700 electronic volumes consortially owned through LLMC-Digital, and 246,800 other electronic volumes or equivalents.
