Chickasaw Nation Law Library at Oklahoma City University School of Law: Reference Services

Reference Services

Oklahoma City University School of Law reference librarians hold both a J.D. and a master's degree in library science. The reference librarians are able to answer questions about conducting legal research using paper and online sources and questions about finding the case law, statutes, administrative rules, treatises and monographs.

The law library also trains a few talented law students to provide reference assistance to their peers. A reference librarian or student reference assistant is available six days a week during the fall and spring semesters. Reference hours may fluctuate during summer.

To contact a reference librarian or student reference assistant, call the Oklahoma City University Law Library at 405-208-5271 or email a reference librarian.

Reference librarians will not provide legal advice but will assist by providing instruction on locating legal information.

Public Computers

Public computers and wifi are available in the library to assist you in your legal research. Students may contact Law Technology Services for printing assistance.

LibGuides

The law library has created a number of LibGuides and research guides on various subjects. These guides are a useful starting point for conducting research as they provide a general overview of the subject and list important library and internet resources. All LibGuides, pathfinders, and research guides are accessible at: http://libguides.okcu.edu/lawlibrary.
