Law
Journal Articles
To find the most up to date research you will need to search for research papers, often published within academic journals. Sometimes your lecturer may suggest a particular journal. Often journals may have a particular focus e.g. New Criminal Law Review so articles will have a focus on criminal law and so can be very useful when you are looking at a particular topic.
