e-Resources
The Law Library subscribes to all the major legal databases required to assist in legal research, teaching and learning. Lists of databases are available by title or if you are interested in finding out resources by subject there are useful resource guides available online. Most resources on these pages are available to Oxford University staff and students only. A full list of all databases available at Oxford can be found on OxLIP+
Most online journals are available from Oxford University e-Journals. For more information please see our online journals page. There are a small number of key journals (including LQR, PL and Crim LR) which are not available online before 1986. Scanned copies of reading list articles from these journals are available to registered students of the Oxford Law Faculty on Law Bod 4 students.
We also have pages on finding working papers and current awareness services and a collection of general links to free web sites.
If you need to access legal databases away from Oxford please see accessing databases from outside Oxford.
Librarians conduct a wide variety of classes for all students. You can also see the timetable for the next series of classes.
Online research guides to databases, to subject areas and to jurisdictional collections are available to help you with your research.
