The way to find books and articles continues to change as technology changes. Library catalogs evolve and use federated search engines which search across scholarship types, from books to journals, and across disciplines. The following guide is an introduction to catalogs, key journal indexes, and other finding aids relevant to international and foreign legal research and finding books and articles in general. Most of the databases described are fee-based and available only to members of the Columbia community. This list is not exhaustive. For additional assistance, please visit the Guide to Columbia Law Library Services and Policies.
