Law Library Arrangement of Books

TYPE: NORMAL

Issue: Dear MMU Law Students & Lecturers, if you realize, there has been a re-arrangement on the Law books in Law Library. From the old system to the new system now. We do receive a lot of complaints on the newly changed system. However, hold on, please don't condemn yet, listen to the reasoning behind. 

Info from the Library Division & Person-in-Charge of Law School

REASONING
Old System: Law books have been divided into areas of Law, it is very easy for a student to student his subjects, where he doesn't even need to know the code/name/details of the book, but just to grab it at the rack, however, this is not the way of a standard library keep their books, in fact, to search a book, you have to based on codes, and to learn to use it, and also this is not the way a Law student learns how to properly search for a book, a case authority. In this point, the new system would help to train our Law student, in learning the correct way and properly utilize the library.

Solution: We have prepared a survey form, agreed by Law School, in asking the students' opinions on which of the system is more preferable, we will later collect and bring it up to the Law school and Library Division. The form will be up next week, therefore, Law Students, please help to fill in and give your suggestions.
