IALS Library's Institutional Subscription Rates

Today I learnt that the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies Library welcomes access to practising lawyers and barristers if their organisation is an institutional library member.

Subscription rates are on a sliding scale according to location and number of lawyers:

The subscription allows any member of the subscribing organisation to visit the library in person to make use of the extensive collection and also to request photocopies and scans via the Document Supply service.

Further information is available on the IALS website:

Sorry if this sounds like an advert for the service; that's because I work at IALS Library! Until very recently I worked at a commercial firm in London which was an institutional subscriber and made frequent use of the document supply service. It's really interesting now to see how the service works from the inside.

New Zealand Law Society Law Library Research Service

Today I learnt that the New Zealand Law Society Law Library offers a research service, even if you aren't a member. In my case they were able to use their resources to check if a New Zealand case was still good law. They were fast and efficient and even asked if I had been affected by the London riots. You can't ask for more than that. The service cost NZ$40 and I was very impressed.
