The Australasian Legal Scholarship Library: New content and sophistication for a world-leading legal scholarship repository and citator (externally led by UNSW)

The Australasian Legal Scholarship Library (developed under a 2008 LIEF grant by UNSW and 6 other Universities), located at , now contains over 40,000 full text items of legal scholarship for free access. This project will more than double its content and comprehensively improve its technical sophistication, by: (i) expanding Library content; (ii) data mining for citations the content of other publishers; (iii) adding metrics (access and citation counts); (iv) exporting technology developed as open source to other collaborating LIIs, thus also improving their content. Hardware, software and personnel are required. Databases and facilities are maintained post-LIEF by AustLII Foundation Ltd.
