Dear Roy,
This year in the spring I taught a one-credit course entitled "Legal
Research in International and Comparative Law: Sources and Strategies" and
have been asked to repeat it next spring.I ended up ordering and referring
to the new 4th edition of the John Wiliams/GWU Guide to International Legal
Research (fairly exhaustive but I'm not completely satisfied with its
organization; wish it would live as a licensed e-book on the web as well,
which I don't think it does). with my own supplementation of readings from
Zweigert on comparative law and the recent new approach to legal systems by
Patrick Glenn (Legal Traditions of the World) and a tremendous amount of our
licensed databases and the free web.
Hope this helps!

Subject: question regarding legal research & writing
This message is directed to all librarians teaching legal research and
writing:
I would like to know if your school offers a seminar on International Legal
Research or if at least you cover that subject in your Advanced Legal
Writing Course. I would also like to know the name of the book that you
use. Please respond to me off the list. Any information will be
appreciated.
