Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Law, Legislative and Municipal Reference Libraries: An Introductory Manual and Bibliographical Guide The present text aims to provide for several possible groups of readers an introductory manual and bibliographical guide to the materials and methods of three types of related special libraries. The first section of the book deals with a kind of special library as old as the word itself, but a kind which has received slight attention in professional literature, and one which is only just awakening to its possibilities for aggressive and scientific service, the law library. The second and third sections deal with recent developments in library activities, the legislative reference library and the municipal reference library. The law library must provide the facts of existing law for those who must apply it as it is, the judge, the practitioner of law, and law student. Legislative and municipal reference libraries aim to supply one factor in the solution of the problem of intelligent legislation by providing in addition to existing law the facts of comparative experience, both to be used by law-makers as a basis for more intelligent and scientifically planned legislation. Some idea of the present extent of these three library activities is gained from the following figures. In a list of law libraries and law departments of libraries where the law collection is considerable or important, published by the American Association of Law Libraries in 1912, five hundred and thirty-four such libraries arc credited to the United States and one hundred to Canada. The list is not complete. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
