Index to Periodical Articles Related to Law covers articles which are not covered by other indexes (such as Index to Legal Periodicals and   Index to Foreign Legal Periodicals).  Many of the articles indexed are from non-law or interdisciplinary periodicals, for example Drugs and Society, Law and History Review, Journal of African Business ; others are from newer law journals which are not yet indexed elsewhere.

The Index is part of the Law Journal Library on the HeinOnline database. At the time of writing, it covers the period 1958 to Fall 2007.

When using the search facility, links are provided to any articles that are available in full elsewhere on HeinOnline.  To find the full text of other articles, search the IALS Library catalogue (by periodical title, not by article title) to see if we have the periodical in printed form or on another database.
