The Columbia Law Library will make every effort to provide digital access to as much material as possible. Unfortunately, not all materials are available digitally, some may only be available for individual purchase and use, and others may be sold within packages that are prohibitively costly.
To access onsite print material (excluding course reserves, and special collections and rare material):
1. Use the Pegasus link above to find the material and click the scan request link within the resource record.
Beginning August 14, 2021, the Law Library's scanning service will cease. The Law Library will reopen fully to current Columbia Law affiliates, allowing self retrieval from the stacks and onsite scanning.
Current Law faculty, staff, and students may use Columbia Libraries CLIO catalog find material. Please note that while CLIO has many records for Law Library resources, it does not have everything and you if you are looking for legal resources, you should also use Pegasus.
Print Materials available in CLIO may be available for scanning or curbside pickup.
