Law Library

The Library's primary mission is to serve the educational and research needs of the faculty, students and staff of Tulane University Law School.  Should you have questions or need further assistance, please contact a member of our Public Services team at 504.865.5952.

Reference Services 

The library has four professional law librarians who help researchers locate appropriate information sources. Every reference librarian in this department has a J.D., a master's degree in library and information science, or both.  Although the primary mission of the Law Library is to support the curricular, scholarship and research needs of Tulane Law School students and faculty, the library also provides legal materials and limited reference assistance for the faculty, staff and students of the University as a whole and for the local bar and general public.
