Review

First published in 1984 with a 1985 supplement, this excellent resource tool has now been completely rethought and reblocked in its instructional format. It entirely reflects the changes in the industry. Originally meant for students, it can now also be used by judges, librarians, and lawyers in the field. Over the past few years, more and more full-text materials have been moved through QL Systems, and the need for an updated manual seems painfully obvious. And here it is, along with a whole brand-new set of practical exercises, with new examples and new lists of commands. The appendices list and describe all law-related databases on QL as of June 1986.
