This research guide covers the resources available to members of the Loyola community who are researching education law. Specific sub-topics encompassed by this guide include but are not limited to elementary education, higher education, special education, charter schools, and discrimination.
Education law is a mix of federal and state primary law; therefore, this guide will cover relevant federal and Illinois statutes and regulations.
Access to some of the electronic resources included in this guide is limited to users who have a valid Loyola ID and password; access to other resources is restricted to the law school community only.
If you have any questions about using any of the sources listed in this guide, or any other reference questions, please contact one of our Reference Librarians at (312) 915-7205, by e-mail at LoyolaLawReference@luc.edu, or in person at the Reference Desk (Law Library, 3rd floor).
The Law Library provides online access to some of the study aids listed below (and many other study aids) for current Loyola Law students through our subscription to West Academic Study Aids. A valid Loyola Law School ID and password are required for remote access to these subscription services.
