The Inns of Court Libraries have created a legal research guide to support students on the Inns of Court College of Advocacy (ICCA) Bar Course. This guide is also relevant to all students requiring guidance on legal research not just those on the ICCA course. We believe this will assist any student undertaking a Bar course and will give them a thorough understanding of legal research techniques.
