Information Sources in Law is a book.

First Edition

The first edition was edited by R G Logan and published by Butterworths in 1986. It is part of the series, which was then known as Butterworths Guides to Information Sources. It consists of twenty-three chapters attributed to twenty contributors.[1] The subject-matter of these chapters ranges from the general to the specialized.[2] A book on legal research describes Information Sources in Law as being “not as useful for present purposes” as the title promises.[3] The Solicitors’ Journal expected that law libraries would find Logan’s book to “prove useful”.[4] Information Sources in Law is “detailed” and its contributors are “leading experts”.[5]

Second Edition

The second edition was edited by Jules Winterton and Elizabeth M Moys and published by Bowker-Saur in 1997. The series of which it was part is now known as Guides to Information Sources.[6] It is “completely revised”.[7] It focuses on Europe,[8] and deals with more than thirty of its jurisdictions.[9]
