Welcome (Back) to the Law Library!

Summer at Regent University Law Library can be a little . . . quiet. Not in the usual "shhh--this is a library" sense, but in the "wow-except for the folks studying for the bar, this place is way too empty" sense.

Don't get me wrong--law librarians and staff work on major projects, attend seminars and conferences, and take great delight in finding spots in the Library parking lot without having to circle--but you are definitely missed.

We look forward to seeing familiar faces and welcoming new students, leading orientation tours for 1Ls, provide training for incoming members of the law review and journals, and just generally gearing up for the bustle that always comes with a new semester.


Welcome (back) to the Law Library!
