Subject: Re: [Int-Law] UN Audiovisual Library of International Law
Dear colleagues,
Apologies for cross-posting. Please share this information as broadly as
possible!
Today, the United Nations Office of Legal Affairs launched the Audiovisual
Library of International Law
The Audiovisual Library aims to provide free, scholarly resources to
students and practictioners around the world, particularly in regions
where there are few resources for the study of international law.
The website has three main parts:
The Historic Archives present documents, photos, and digital film footage
relating to the UN role in the development of international law. This
section includes the texts of treaties, some General Assembly
declarations, and certain Security Council resolutions. Each legal
instrument also has a procedural history and/or related documents (travaux
preparatoires).
The Lecture Series contains lectures by leading scholars on topics in
international law, and includes a bibliography of related materials. The
100 lectures posted so far are each about an hour long and discuss various
aspects of international law. Most are in English, but other official
languages of the UN are also represented. Certain scholars contribute
introductory texts for the Historic Archives as well as lectures.
The Research Library provides links to other web-based research resources
in international law, including other UN sources, national treaty series,
and selected scholarly articles provided by HeinOnline (still in
pilot/beta).
The Office of Legal Affairs is digitizing the English version of UN
documents related to the procedural histories, and more will be added to
the site as resources allow.
Please send any feedback to me and I will forward it appropriately to
colleagues in the Office of Legal Affairs.
