legal research "Public Resource" websites are now emerging.

high fees of traditional legal research corporations. Individuals and

Public Law Libraries of legal records are a database of federal and state
case law, accessible to both the public, attorneys and legal professionals,
free of charge.
The new legal law libraries typically include a centralized catalog of
federal and state laws and statutes, regulations, court rules, and constitutional
law. Registered users may download online legal forms for a reasonable
small fee from a link to Legal Forms on the web site. The online legal
libraries bring together free legal materials on the web with hundreds
of volumes of law previously difficult to find and research using more
traditional and costly legal resource websites.
The new virtual law library is designed for people who often do not have
a familiarity with the law or legal research. Its huge database often
includes: State Law: Access to law for all 50-states. Supreme Court and
Appellate Court cases from the late 1990s to the present. Statutes. Constitutions
. Court Rules. Court Regulations and Procedures. Administrative Codes
