As the end of exams approach, you might want to start thinking about life after exams. The Law Library will still be here for you in the summer! Law Library summer hours begin after Friday, May 12. In the summer we are closed on Saturdays and Sundays and open Monday through Friday 8AM to 5PM.

Legal Research Boot Camp will be held May 15 at Cincinnati Law in the afternoon and May 16 at NKU Chase College of Law in the morning. The Legal Research Boot Camp is hosted by the University of Cincinnati College of Law and NKU Chase College of Law each May to refresh students’ legal research skills for any internships, externships or other legal work over the summer. Information and the registration form for the Legal Research Boot Camp can be found on the 2017 Legal Research Boot Camp page.

Over the summer, you still have access to one of the most valuable services that the Law Library has to offer — Reference Librarian expertise! Call the Reference Desk at 513-556-8078 with research questions and we’ll be happy to help with suggestions for sources and tips. Also, don’t forget the Library’s Web page and many research guides.
