Course reserves are located at the Loan Desk and can be checked out for two hours. Please ask staff at the Loan Desk for assistance. You may wish to use the book scanners on the second floor Teaming Room to scan relevant pages.
Copies of selected past exams, model answers, and syllabi are available in our Digital Reserves. The exams are organized on this webpage by instructor and by course. Please note that the Digital Reserves is not a comprehensive collection; it only has exam questions and model answers that have been provided to the library by the faculty.
The Stanford Law and Technology Association has made available a bank of outlines created by past SLS students summarizing their notes from class. You can also give back by contributing your own outline!
Study aids are supplemental sources that are designed to assist you with learning legal concepts. You can use study aids as explanatory material, and to gain background knowledge and context on a legal topic. They can help clarify confusion and prepare for exams!
Below is an explanation of the most common types and series of study aids you may find.
The most recent editions of study aids are part of a collection on the second floor of the law library known as the Eyles Aisles. Older editions of the student aids are often also available elsewhere in the stacks. Please search in the library catalog for more information on finding older editions.
Eyles Aisle is located on the second floor in the corridor where the elevators open. This aisle contains numerous study aids, including the Concise Hornbook Series, Nutshell Series, and Examples & Explanations. Please note that these materials are for in-library use only and cannot be checked out. However, please feel free to use the scanners in the Teaming Room on the second floor to scan materials.
