Article submissions to legal journals

I'm looking for a bit of free advertising (especially from U.S. law
schools) from those who might be interested in telling their faculty about
the author submission process available at
http://law.wlu.edu/library/research/lawrevs/mostcited.asp For anyone who
hasn't looked at the webpage recently, choices have been added to limit
legal journals by whether or not they are peer-reviewed, and to limit by
the journal's country of origin. By clicking "author submit" the page will
generate a list of e-mail addresses enabling an author to simultaneously
e-mail an article to multiple journals. The webpage includes individual
journal upload/e-mail links (where it's inappropriate to include the
article in a multiple e-mail list), and editorial addresses for journals
that require postal copy submissions. Currently, for U.S. law journals,
395 journals accept simultaneous submissions, 72 journals accept uploads
or individual e-mails, and around 240 journals require that an article be
sent through the mail in paper and/or diskette form.

For those who aren't interested in author submission, the webpage is also
useful for linking to the journal homepages. Out of the 950 journals only
47 lack a homepage link. The links are checked every couple of weeks by a
link-checker program so they should stay reasonably accurate.
