Picture of the Moment: Purposeful Spaces, Living History

The Law Library is previewing a new exhibit - Purposeful Spaces, Living History: African-Americans, Civil Rights, and Law in Nevada. Funded by a grant from the State Bar of Nevada Law Related Education Consortium and created by Rachel J. Anderson, Associate Professor, William S. Boyd School of Law and Claytee D. White, Director of Oral History Research Center at UNLV, the exhibit will be on display until May 16th.

Picture of the Moment: Federal Depository Library Program

The Supreme Court Library is a selective depository in the Federal Depository Library Program.  Anyone may visit a Federal depository library and access Federal government information free of charge.  The Supreme Court Library selects primary legal materials in print, microform and online formats and staff is available to assist users with the collection. 

New Library Conference Room Available for Reservation





We recently converted the microfiche room into a conference room. Like our other conference rooms, it is available for reservation (call 775-684-1640). Unlike our other conference rooms, it does not have video or teleconference capabilities, so you will need to use Room 104/105 or Room 107 if a party is appearing telephonically. Room 103 seats six to ten people.

 



Picture of the Week

Not many libraries maintain print card catalogs, though the Law Library still has one for those folks who like the serendipity of thumbing through cards or don't want the hassle of logging onto a computer.  For those that prefer electronics, the library also has an online catalog through its membership in the Cooperative Libraries Automated Network.  There is even a mobile version of the online catalog so you can access the library's holdings from your phone or tablet.  

Picture of the Week

The Law Library has a collection of superseded Nevada code volumes that includes every edition of the Nevada Revised Statutes.
