Legal information
is at the core of the study and practice of law. For
this reason, Whittier Law School is committed to providing
a comprehensive, well-managed law library for its students
and faculty. Whittier's Law Library is open more than
100 hours per week. The Library provides professional
services for day and evening students. It is the largest
law library between Los Angeles and San Diego.
The Library contains in excess of
350,000 volumes to aid students with instruction and
research, and serves as a California state and federal
depository. The collection includes materials in print,
on laser disc, and on microform. Printers are available
for the microform materials. Low-cost photocopiers
are located in two alcoves in the library.
Students may study in the Segerstrom
Reading Room or one of the many carrels or tables located
in the book stacks. For student group meetings there
are fourteen Conference Rooms and rooms for viewing
video tapes. The library maintains an Adaptive Learning
Center for sight impaired students.
The library is located in Building
Four on the Campus and is connected to the Classroom
building. Student organizations have offices in these
buildings as well. The library has its own entrance,
adjacent to the student parking lot. The entire library
is on one floor and all the resources in the library
are easily accessible.
