The Law Library has an interesting collection of feature films that deal with attorneys or legal themes. Many are available in both DVD and VHS formats. The collection includes newer films as well as some classics. The video tapes are cataloged in the U.A. Libraries catalog, and can be checked out for three days by law students or for one week by law faculty. Please bring your University of Akron ID to check-out the video tapes.
The video tapes can also be viewed in the Law Library. Law students and faculty can reserve a group study room that has a VCR and monitor.
Please stop at the Circulation Desk to check out video tapes or use Law Library's VCR equipment.
