This LibGuide is an orientation to the primary law of the United Kingdom. It also covers secondary sources and has a brief section on legislative history. It focuses on resources that are accessible in the Library, and available through commercial legal research databases that we provide for our students and faculty. Where particularly useful, we also include free online resources.
In the Loyola Law Library, foreign and international materials are found on the third floor. The following call number ranges show where specific UK books are shelved.
