Research Requests
Librarians are available to assist with the location and use of library materials, both print and electronic. In response to questions received from members of the public, we are happy to direct you to sources of legal information or to your nearest local law library, to provide material for a school assignment, or refer you to state agencies providing information on a specific topic. It is unlawful for library staff to complete in-depth legal research for members of the public, provide legal advice and interpret information appearing in legal publications.
If you have questions about your particular legal situation, consider seeking the advice of an attorney. Virginia Lawyer Referral Service will provide the name of an attorney who will meet with you for thirty minutes for a $35.00 fee. Their toll-free number is 1-800-552-7977.
