The Library offers legal research training in group sessions and on a one-to-one basis for pupils, students and barristers.
Pupils
We have been running a legal research training course for new pupils each spring and autumn since 2013.
The date of the autumn session on the essentials of legal research will be advertised later in the year.
Students
The Library runs a Qualifying Session for new Bar Course students in the autumn, which provides a basic introduction to legal research.
