Law school libraries often create their own research guides on a variety of topics, including local resources, unique aspects of their collections, and legal research techniques. Because some law schools have dozens of these guides, it is impracticable to link to each of these guides separately. Additionally, some law school libraries offer access and reference assistance to members of the public. Many law schools also participate in the Federal Depository Library Program, which requires member libraries to permit public access to visitors who are researching federal government publications.
Below you will find links to law schools in Michigan, each school's respective library, and the library catalog, if available. We recommend contacting these libraries directly if you are interested in learning more about their services and access policies.
Below you will find additional guides on Michigan legal topics and legal research. These resources are not comprehensive, and were selected among a multitude of Michigan law topics available online.
