How do I find the South Dakota Code or Am. Jur. 2d in the Law Library? Are we ever going to get DVD's in the Library?

As we return the books to the shelves after our project to widen aisle space, we have changed the locations of some resources to better suit your needs. We also will be adding DVD's to our collection.

  • Two sets of the South Dakota Code are located on the main floor of the Law Library in the first short bookcase in the middle row. Look for the sign "South Dakota Collection." Two sets of the South Dakota Code remain in the Reserve Room.

  • Secondary materials, including American Jurisprudence 2d (Am. Jur. 2d), the American Law Reports (A.L.R.'s), the Restatements and the form books, are in the tall bookcases in front of you as you walk in the main floor of the Library, in Ranges 3 and 4.

  • Federal materials, including the United States Code Congressional and Administrative News (U.S.C.C.A.N.), Statutes at Large, the Codes (U.S.C., U.S.C.A. and U.S.C.S.), the Supreme Court reporters, Federal Reporter 2d, Federal Reporter 3d, Federal Supplement, and Federal Supplement 2d, are in Ranges 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

  • State materials, including the Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota and Wyoming Codes, the Regional Reporters, including the North Western 2d Reporter and the North Western 2d digest, will be in the remaining shelving ranges.

  • The Nutshell Study Guides are in the short bookcase in front of you as you walk in the main floor of the Library. You may check them out for 24 hours.

  • We will be getting popular, legally-themed, DVD's for check out. On order are People v. Larry Flynt, Hot Coffee (McDonald's too-hot coffee litigation), Gideon's Trumpet, (Gideon v. Wainwright), and Trials of Darryl Hunt (the story of a man wrongly accused of rape and murder and the nearly twenty years he spent in prison).
