Description
The American Association of Law Libraries (AALL) Research Grant program supports projects of value to professions that create, disseminate, or use legal and law-related information. It aims to stimulate diverse scholarship in any format, including research on legal information services, law library collections, legal research, law librarianship, and law library administration. Its financial base is the AALL Research Fund, an endowment established by LexisNexis in 2000.
The AALL LexisNexis Research Grant Jury selects projects for their significance, originality, usefulness, and potential contribution to scholarship in librarianship or legal fields. The program favors appropriate research strategies and systematic analysis producing objective, reliable results. Proposals must demonstrate feasibility within the proposed schedule and budget and explain how findings will be disseminated.
