Reference librarians are available by appointment to provide research assistance. They can assist in-person, by phone (314-977-1447), and by email (lawref@slu.edu).
Note: State law and library policy prohibit library staff from engaging in any conduct that might constitute the unauthorized practice of law. The staff is unable to interpret statutes, cases and regulations, or to advise patrons regarding their legal rights. The staff may assist patrons in locating materials or links that would aid in individual research.
