Current Domestic Violence Legal Literature

About the “Current Domestic Violence Legal Literature” website: The "Current Domestic Violence Legal Literature" website is a resource for keeping informed about current articles related to domestic violence law. The Law Library staff selects domestic violence articles daily from the U.S. legal journals and non-U.S. legal journals published in English. We then input into this database the basic bibliographic information and an image of the first page of each article. The image of the article's first page will provide readers with a more complete idea of the scope of each article and the biographical background of the authors. Articles will be added two to three times a week, depending on the volume of cites. This page is RSS-enabled. Subscribe to the RSS feed using a feed reader, or RSS-enabled browser (Firefox, Safari, or IE 7) to receive automatic notices of updates. The RSS feed address is http://web.austin.utexas.edu/law_library/domestic/rss.cfm. The Library provides this service under the “fair use” provision of U.S. copyright law. Only the first page of an article will be scanned, and images will be deleted after 60 days. This service is for non-commercial, educational purposes only.
