Legal professionals worldwide have published more than 10 million published works of legal insight digitally with an additional one million additional works each year.
Here are the Library by LexBlog’s best estimates on the large amount of legal insight being published by legal professionals,
- Over 10 million published works published digitally by legal professionals worldwide.
- Over 4 million published works from United States legal professionals.
- Over 1 million additional published works written annually, worldwide.
- Approximately 400,000 additional published works written annually in the United States.
As part of our work to preserve and structure legal professional publishing as citable, The Library will begin to display actual numbers on the publishing with verified accounts of the authors and publishing preserved in the Library
The Library’s goal is to give the public and the profession access to the law and access to justice, built on the insight of legal professionals. That insight reaches lawyers, the judiciary, academics, law students, and the public, both directly and through the lawyers who serve them.
The law does not live only in cases and statutes. It also lives in the daily insight, analysis, explanation, and experience shared by legal professionals. Too often, that work disappears.
The Library exists so legal professional-authored insight becomes part of the enduring legal record, not lost history.
