About

The Law Library and Technology Center (LLTC) provides not only law library services to the students, faculty, and staff of the Shepard Broad Law Center but also technology services including hardware, software, and classroom technology support.  We have 13 study rooms with an annual circulation of 10,197. Ten librarians (including six with both the J.D. and M.L.S.) provide reference support to approximately 1,100 students, 70 faculty members, 50 adjuncts, and 100 staff members.  Each librarian is a liaison to a number of Law Center faculty and each librarian actively provides workshops and seminars for both students and faculty.  Librarians teach Advanced Legal Research and the Assistant Dean for Law Library and Technology Services has a joint appointment as a member of the Law Center faculty teaching substantive courses as well.  As such, the LLTC is uniquely positioned to play an important role in the curriculum of the Law Center.  The LLTC contains approximately 383,000 volumes.  Our average weekly gatecount is 6975 and our annual circulation is 3,267. New initiatives taken this year include the use of QR Codes throughout the LLTC that provide useful information to patrons.  Additionally, the LLTC created its “Information Exchange Zone” this past year – an area in the LLTC where group collaboration, food consumption, and talking in normal inside voices are permitted and encouraged.

Novalawcity is a service for Current Awareness provided by the LLTC.
