About
What is the Oxford Legal Research Library?
Oxford Legal Research Library (OLRL) is a new family of products from Oxford University Press, providing integrated access across collections of key law titles in a variety of subject areas. OLRL currently includes four collections, International Commercial Arbitration, International Commercial Law, Financial and Banking Law, and Private International Law. Each collection can be browsed and searched separately, or users with access to both products can choose to search them together via the OLRL family interface. The OLRL collections aim to speed up research and provide easy access to authoritative content, and are an essential resource for anyone currently performing research in these areas of law and practice.
What's included?
OLRL brings together up-to-date, key copyrights, across four areas of Oxford University Press’s law portfolio:
International Commercial Law
International Commercial Arbitration
Private International Law
Financial and Banking Law
How does it work?
OLRL adds a range of practice area collections to Oxford’s growing range of online services for law practitioners. Each collection provides integrated access to leading reference works and treatises, supported by the Oxford Law Citator for linking and onward research. New works, new editions, and supplements will be added to each collection, ensuring that the service provides comprehensive, authoritative, and up-to-date coverage and analysis of law, practice, and procedure.
