Pritzker Legal Research Center will be more suitable than those listed here.
Northwestern University School of Law students are especially encouraged to visit or call (312-503-8450)
our Reference Desk for help with law and economics research questions. For resources
on international economic law, please see our International Trade, Business, and Economic Law page.
