Use Library Search to access eBooks or to find items in our print collections. Much of the material that you will need to read will be available as an ebook.
To search for a book, use words from the title and the author or editor's name in the search box. If you are searching for a law textbook, always sort by date newest from the left hand side menu. This will ensure that you find the latest edition. You can also limit your search to ebooks.
Law print collections are held in the Wills Library, but you may also need to use the collections held in the Arts and Social Sciences Library.
You can also use Library Search to search for journal articles using the author and title. Some Law Journals are not indexed in Library Search, so if you can't find the article you are looking for - search for the Journal title on our find an e-journal page.
References to Law Journals will often use abbreviated titles, so you may need to use the Cardiff Index of Legal Abbreviations to find the full title.
If you are searching for journal articles on a particular topic, the Journals area in Westlaw is a good starting point.
