Latin American Legal Literature: Problems in their Acquisition and Comparative Reflections
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 February 2019
Extract
When I was first contacted by the program chairman to present a paper at the 1976 Conference of the International Association of Law Libraries he very suavely suggested that my paper should deal “with some important aspect of the legal literature in Latin America.” I then tried to compile bibliographies of articles dealing with law libraries in Latin America. Unfortunately, I was unable to find more than a handful of articles, some in Spanish and others in English and these were not of much help. Those in Spanish dealt generally with straight theory and some also dealt with the devising of a viable methold of classification. Having catalogued and classified three law libraries in the United States, I feel that a speech on this subject might be of interest to a gathering of Latin American Law Librarians although inappropriate at this Conference.
