The Virgil Darnell Hawkins Collection: A Special Collection At The Heart Of An Hbcu Law School, Yolanda P. Jones
Library Faculty Publications
The Florida A&M University College of Law has several special collections, but the most significant of those special collections is one that is on the fourth floor of the law library. When you look at it you will see several ranges of books that are outdated. They include case reporters, statutes, secondary sources and other legal materials that are no older than the 1960s.

Liba2j! The Continuum Of Access To Justice Services, Yolanda Jones
Library Faculty Publications

While Access to Justice (A2J) services are provided by many libraries, they can be seen by law library managers as costly, unfunded mandate.
