A Legal Publishers' List: Librarians Cooperate to Discern the Corporate Affiliations of U.S. Legal Publishers

Abstract

Summary Mergers and acquisitions in the U.S. legal publishing industry have created significant problems for librarians and staff in identifying the publisher of a given title, and in knowing whom to contact for claiming and invoicing problems. Elaborating on an in-service resource developed at the University of Colorado Law Library, librarians from all over the world have cooperated to create a list of legal publishers' corporate affiliations, available on the World Wide Web. The current version of the list, which is found at http://www.Colorado.EDU/Law/lawlib/ts/legpub.htm follows.
