Legal reference books

Abstract

1. Law Books Published. Compiled and edited by Meira G. Pimsleur. Dobbs Ferry, N.Y., Glanville Publishers. Cumulative Volume 6, 1974. 421pp. pa. S67.50/yr. (quarterly) annual cumulation. 74–227609. This is an excellent bibliography of current legal materials. It is arranged in three parts: (I) Authors, Titles, Editors, Translators; (II) Subjects and Series; (III) Publishers and Distributors. Of special interest to reference librarians is the List of Subjects in contemporary terms relevant to present reading interests. The quality of the entries is comparable to the more generic Books in Print. Credentials of the compiler/editor are the best. Recommended for medium and large public libraries and for academic library systems which do not include a special law library. Most law libraries subscribe to this service.
