11.3.3.2) What legal resources are available on the Internet?
There are too many legal resources available on the Internet for me to
offer a complete catalog. However, there are two superb resources
that will help you find out what legal resources are available on the
Internet and where you can find them for yourself:
* The law.listserv.* USENET newsgroups are an excellent resource
for cutting-edge legal information of all kinds. The newsgroup
law.listserv.law-lib (<news:law.listserv.law-lib >), moderated by
Associate Director Judy Janes (<mailto:jcjanes@ucdavis.edu >) of
the U.C. Davis Law School Library is one of the most popular.
This newsgroup is frequented by thousands of law librarians, law
professors, and other legal scholars. A word of caution though:
Do not identify yourself as an outsider unless you are ready to
suffer the ridicule of thousands of erudite individuals.
* Erik J. Heels, who heads up Lawyer's Cooperative Publishing
(<http://www.lcp.com/ >), has compiled a very comprehensive list
of legal resources available on the Internet:
The Legal List,
Law-Related Resources Available on the Internet and
Elsewhere (ISBN 0-9643637-0-4).
The Legal List is always available on the news.answers USENET
newsgroup (<news:news.answers >) as well as many other
newsgroups. A paperback edition of the Legal List is also
available from the author. The Legal List is an invaluable
reference tool, and I unequivocally recommend that anyone with
any interest whatsoever in the law or the Internet get a copy of
the Legal List as soon as possible.
