Someone was kind enough to fax me a copy of the new USNews ranking of law
schools.
One set of criteria is listed says the following
"Faculty resources was based on a school's 1991-92 expenditures in dollars
per student; the number of books, microfiche and microfilm in the law ibrary
divided by the number of law students, and the currect student-to -teacher
ratio."
This is the first US News report survey I have seen where anything specific
about the law library is mentioned in the criteria. I am thankful at least
for this. I think the implications of the library not being mentioned at
all are scary.
I think the efforts on many law librarians to bring this library recognition
about are to be congratulated. Albert Brecht, USC.
