Where are all the books from downstairs?

Luckily, many books from downstairs were moved upstairs to the main floor! And our heavily used materials (KF 154-9999), which were already upstairs on the Main floor, have mostly stayed upstairs. (Did you know that KF is the Library of Congress Classification number for Law — United States?)

What’s still here?

  • Call number ranges KA – KE, KG – KZ, and K. (Note that “K” books are shelved at the end.) This should include our major treatises and practice guides, as well as other frequently-consulted secondary sources.
  • West’s Annotated California Codes
  • The United States Code and current issues of law reviews are behind the service counter in Reserves; please ask a staff member to retrieve them for you.

What’s in storage?

Most primary materials have been placed in storage.This includes:

  • Federal – reporters, digests, and both sets of annotated statutes (USCA and USCS);
  • California – reporters, digests, and Deering’s California Codes, and
  • all other state statutory compilations.

So how can you tell where everything is? Sign - call number ranges

  • Do check the signs on the shelves. These signs — the ones that show a call number range — have been updated to reflect temporarily relocated materials.
  • Don’t use ANTPAC. The online catalog has not been updated to reflect items being in storage or temporarily relocated to the Reading Room.
  • You can always ask a staff member if you need help finding something!

New copier in the Law Library

Photo of copier email optionIt scans! It sends email! It has a paper feeder for copying more than one page at a time! In other words, it is the copier you have been waiting and hoping for.

We are excited to offer this new service in response to student feedback, and we hope it works well for all of your copying needs.

Students: please contact us with comments about Law Library facilities and services.
