Halsbury's Laws of Canada Series Arrives

LexisNexis Canada has started publishing Halsbury's Laws of Canada, which will be a multi-volume encyclopedic treatment of Canadian law (some 57 volumes). The first 3 print volumes are now for sale:

• Access to Information
• Conflict of Laws
• Immigration and Citizenship

I had mentioned this publishing project briefly in my Library Boy post of May 2, 2006 entitled New Quicklaw Interface.

Slaw.ca contributor Connie Crosby has more on the subject, including details from a phone conversation she had with a VP from LexisNexis Canada who explained that each print title will correspond to a new release of an online collection in Quicklaw that will contain "topical summaries, case law, legislation, treatise material, current awareness including 'hot cases' and the encyclopedic content of the Halsbury's Laws of Canada".
