Contents: The Dundee University law school has an interesting variety of resources on their website. "General Legal Information" brings up links to databases for the Acts of Parliament, Her Majesty's Stationery Office, Hansard Reports, Statutory Instruments, several U.K. legal Internet resources, and an impressive series of links to general legal and reference resources such as Hieros Gamos, legal.net, and the Cambridge University Library (http://www.cam.ac.uk/Hytelnet/uk0/uk000.html), which gives the user acess to all U.K. university library catalogues. Other topical divisions--e.g. family law, public international law, immigration and nationality, law schools and the British legal profession--have one or more links to resources such as the European Union, the European Court of Justice, Gabriel (the server for European national libraries), with several European mirror sites. Roman law websites are located under "miscellaneous". There are also links to newspapers, search engines and general information--e.g. BBC Online, the Economist, the Press Association, the Times and other important newspapers, and the yellow pages. Finally, the Department of Law sponsors a Charity Law Research Unit, which studies the law of charitable and voluntary associations, producing research on local government, regulations, and comparative law of Europe and North America.
