Start Your Ohio Research With Our Primary Law Guide
The Law Library maintains a comprehensive research guide on Ohio primary law, designed primarily for law students but equally useful for practicing attorneys and other legal researchers.
The guide covers all major areas of Ohio primary authority, including:
- cases,
- the Ohio Constitution,
- legislation,
- legislative history,
- administrative regulations,
- administrative decisions, and
- executive orders.
Researchers will find explanations of the different sources of Ohio law along with guidance on how to locate and use them effectively. The guide points users to key resources available through LexisNexis, Westlaw, and Bloomberg Law, as well as freely available online materials and print resources available in the library.
By bringing together the full range of Ohio primary law resources in one place, the guide serves as a practical starting point for both basic and advanced legal research.
