Updated GlobaLex Research Guide on League of Nations Documents

 GlobaLex, a very good electronic collection created by the Hauser Global Law School Program at the New York University School of Law, has updated its guide on Researching League of Nations Documents:

"As the precursor to the United Nations, the League of Nations (1919-1946) is of interest to researchers concerned with the historical and institutional development of intergovernmental organizations (IGOs), the expansion of public international law, the establishment of modern treaty protocols and practices, and the evolution of the concepts of international cooperation and justice. League of Nations documents can be greatly useful sources for legal scholarship, but the complex nature of the documentation can also be a source of frustration."

"This guide is intended to provide a starting point for finding and using League of Nations documents. Additional guidance can be found by consulting the research guides and publications listed below. Please note that research into the autonomous institutions affiliated with the League, such as the Permanent Court of International Justice and the International Labour Organization, is not included in this guide, being well-covered elsewhere."
