The Paralegal Lib Guide is the destination for all related course materials. Think of a Lib Guide as a digital filing cabinet, full of tools that can do everything from enhance supplementary instruction to provide relevant, topical resources that will benefit a student’s prospective job hunt and professional development well beyond the classroom.

Lib Guides are part of a grant-funded RCBC initiative pertaining to freely available Open Educational Resources (OERs), which aim to change higher education into a comprehensive and diverse experience that works to serve students and ensure success is always within their reach. OERs for students of the Paralegal discipline feature databases such as Westlaw and Nexis Uni, and over forty law textbooks available for download.
