Library Services
Services for Practitioners
The Law Library is a research facility, and many of its materials are of a reference nature and do not circulate. Anyone desiring to use law books and other legal materials may do so in the Law Library.
Kansas residents not connected with the University of Kansas must obtain a KU Library Borrower Card from the Watson Library Circulation Department. Appropriate photo identification is needed to acquire this card, normally a Kansas Driver’s License. Cost of the card is $20/year.
A KU Library Borrower Card also serves as a library copy card if the user chooses to store value on the card.
