The Wolf
Law Library's collection of over 350,000 volumes includes all
basic materials necessary for research and study in Anglo-American
law. Essentially all reported decisions of the federal, state,
and territorial courts, as well as decisions of the courts of
England and selected Commonwealth countries, are maintained.
The collection also contains all editions of the United States
Code, all current codes of the fifty states and territories,
the statutes of England, Canada, and Australia, federal administrative
decisions, and special subject area reports. There is a carefully
selected, well-rounded collection of treatises in law and related
fields, encyclopedias, digests, and citators.
The library also maintains several special collections that
add interest and depth to our research collections. These
include periodicals in the English language; substantial collections
in international law, Roman law, environmental law, and jurisprudence; and
general and legal reference materials. The Law Library is also
a selective depository of federal government documents. To help
faculty and students stay current with national and world events
or to provide a break from studying, the library maintains a
collection of magazines and newspapers and a popular book and
video collection.
The collection is arranged on three floors:
The ground floor includes the Bound Periodical Collection. Superseded
and little-used materials are maintained in a locked compact
shelving area.
The main floor includes the Reserve & Popular Video collections
located behind the Circulation Desk. Encyclopedic materials, federal statutes, reporters, and other federal materials,
digests, regional reporters, and a core collection of Virginia
materials are located in the main stack area on this floor. Newspapers
and popular magazines, current popular books and the reference
collection are also located on this floor.
The top floor contains all classified texts and treatises, federal administrative
agency decisions, and materials
from the fifty states and U. S. territories.
