Are you interested in legal research? Do you have students who would like to take an online course in legal research? We are offering an asynchronous online course in spring 2015 that will be especially useful to students in New York State, but could also be of interest to students elsewhere. Please share the following information with your master's students. More information about our online courses open to non-matriculated students, and application information, can be found at: http://gse.buffalo.edu/nonmatric.



LIS 503 - Special Topics: Introduction to Legal Research

There is a required textbook. All other reading materials will be distributed or accessible online. Physical access to a law library is not required to be successful in this course. Prerequisite: None. Credits: 3. Instructor: Elizabeth Adelman, Director of the Law Library, SUNY Buffalo Law School
