New Research Guide on Australian Law

GlobaLex, an online legal research collection at New York University, has just published A Guide to online research resources for the Australian Federal Legal System with some reference to the State Level. It is written by Petal Kinder, Court Librarian at the High Court of Australia, the equivalent of the Supreme Court of Canada.

The guide covers the structure of government and of the judicial system, the law reporting system, methods for locating case law, legislation, parliamentary documents, legislative histories, treaties, and secondary sources.
