| Legal Publishers Legal information resources represent a substantial investment for a new lawyer. We provide you here with some tips and contact information for making informed decisions as you develop your office library of print and electronic subscriptions. Please don't hesitate to revisit our collection to examine materials you are considering to buy for your own use, or to ask us to recommend titles.
· Consider checking with used law book dealers if you are interested in acquiring a back run of a title. · Call for a copy of the publisher’s current catalog, or check the publisher’s web site. Even if you aren’t purchasing a title immediately, this may help you identify potential information sources. · Inquire whether a local sales representative serves your area. The rep may be able to keep you informed of new publications and expedite matters for you. · When inquiring about the price of a title, also inquire about frequency of supplementation, the projected annual upkeep cost, available format(s), and any combination prices. · If you have suggestions for improving specific titles or for needed subject areas, let the publisher(s) know.
