It’s finals time!

study aidsYes, finals are here and I know what you’re thinking, “What can the law library do to help me with finals?” (Just work with me here.) So here’s a short list:

  1. Study space – We have plenty of places to study in the library. Don’t forget our study rooms on the 3rd floor.
  2. Longer hours – During finals we are open until 2 AM every night.
  3. CALI lessons – Have you tried CALI lessons? You should. CALI quizzes you on legal topics. If you need the authorization code, just pick up a card from the reference desk or email me, Janet Lindenmuth.
  4. Study aids – For your last minute studying needs we have study aids like, Examples and Explanations, Glannon Guides and the Understanding the Law series. Check them out in the study aids room right behind the reference desk.

So visit the library for everything you need to study!
