First Year Law Guide

Welcome to Weldon!

Welcome to the First Year Law LibGuide! This guide is designed to be a one-stop shop for 1Ls (first year law students) looking for information and resources that could help you with your courses. Resources are organized by subject based on the 1L curriculum and provide background and additional information on what you will learn in those courses. If you have any questions, stop by the library or the reference desk! We'd be happy to help you.

Dalhousie University is located in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq.  We are all Treaty People.

We recognize that African Nova Scotians are a distinct people whose histories, legacies and contributions have enriched that part of Mi’kma’ki known as Nova Scotia for over 400 years.
