Changes in Legal Research and Analysis

In light of Michel-Adrien’s very interesting note, here are some materials I found recently.

This diagram is from a 1979 paper on the elements of legal research and analysis.

I wonder how this would compare with a model of current practices.

I discovered it at MIT’s Dspace repository. Here is a link to the record:

But the most interesting thing about the search process was searching techxtra for “legal research.” This service searches multiple specialized sources and provides results in a very legible way.

It is, BTW, a great example of GL, complete with a typo on the front cover.
