FOREIGN LAW RESEARCH RESOURCE


FLARE
is a collaboration between the major libraries collecting law in the United Kingdom: Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, Bodleian Law Library, Squire Law Library, British Library, and School of Oriental and African Studies. It is working to improve the coverage and accessibility of foreign legal materials at the national level and to raise expertise in their use. The work is currently focused on improving national coverage of the law of the transition states of central and Eastern Europe and building a distributed national collection of official gazettes. Current projects include: a series of Research Guides to the law of foreign jurisdictions, training courses on the law of the transition states, a Union List of holdings of European Legal Gazettes in major research libraries.” (from the website)
