The Law Library has acquired two major databases for the use of Cornell students, faculty, and staff.
HeinOnline Session Laws Library contains fully searchable images of the official bound session laws of all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands from inception to date. Session laws for all states are current within 60 days of the printed publication. Finally, it includes Acts of the Parliaments of Australia (1901-2011) and of Canada (1792-2011) and the Official Gazette of the Bahamas (1968-1996).
Making of Modern Law: Foreign Primary Sources, 1600-1970, was just released this week. It offers fully searchable images of over 1500 historical legal codes, statutes, regulations, and commentaries on codes from the UK, France, Germany, Austria, Belgium, Hungary, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Romania, Russia, and Switzerland.
Both databases may be used by all Cornell students, faculty, and staff both on and off campus with the links given above.
