The John Marshall Law School/National Anti-Vivisection Society Research Library for Animal Advocacy (“NAVS Collection”)
Since 1996, the Louis L. Biro Law Library of the John Marshall Law School has served as the repository of an important and unique collection on animal rights and animal law. On October 19, 1995, the John Marshall Law School and the National Anti-Vivisection Society (“NAVS”) entered into an Agreement for the creation of the National Research Library for Animal Advocacy. In collaboration with NAVS, the Library maintains this special collection. These materials are located on the 6th floor of the Library. At present, there are over 190 titles in the NAVS collection. Click here to see a listing of these titles. The collection serves not only patrons at The John Marshall Law School but members of NAVS and researchers nationwide. Please contact NAVS for permission to use this collection if you are not a current student, staff or faculty member of JMLS, alum of JMLS or current CBA member.

Former Liberian Leader Obtains Assistance from John Marshall Contingent 
Professor John Gorby, Foreign and International Law Library Anne Abramson and eight JMLS law students (aka the "FIRM") have filed an application for mediation to ECOWAS (Economic Community of Western African States) on behalf of the former transitional Chairman of Liberia, Charles Gyude Bryant. The FIRM is seeking mediation pursuant to the Liberian Comprehensive Peace Agreement of 2003. For more information about the Bryant application, please click HERE.

Information for CBA Members
The Library has initiated a program to issue photo IDs to current CBA members and their authorized representatives. The Photo ID enables a cardholder to bypass security checkpoints. Click HERE for details and to obtain an agreement form.

Wondering what new materials the library is getting?

You can receive a weekly email listing the new items we receive, from books to DVDs.   We have also created a monthly list of just the new DVDs we add to the collection.  If you would like to receive either list email Gwen Gregory at 8gregory@jmls.edu.  If you don't want to get more email, you can see a monthly list of new items at http://catalog.jmls.edu/ftlist.
