The Elf on the Shelf made a surprise visit to The New York Law Institute !

And true to form, that little imp got into everything !!

The Elf’s first stop was our New York Collection …really loving the superseded!


Did you know that NYLI has all 50 States superseded statutes — and for NY — also has pocket parts from 1917- present!!

…And, of course, Elf couldn’t resist checking out our eBooks… particularly the Lexis Colorbooks (he just loves anything red & green !)

New in 2022 — NYLI now has Lexis Colorbooks as eBooks!

Elfie is a movie fan, and so was very intrigued by NYLI’s microform collection, especially its comprehensive New York Law Journal on film!

NYLI has ALL (from 1888) NY Law Journals on film! If you need a NYLJ case or article that’s pre-online… We’ve got it @ NYLI !

And the Elf himself was rather impressed with NYLI’s Records & Briefs!!

NY Court of Appeals and NY Appellate, US Court of Appeals & Supreme Court Records & Briefs @ NYLI… and access to LLMC R & B collection is also part of NYLI membership

… And every Elf librarian knows that often the best place to start your legal research is with a Nutshell !!

Elf is just nutty over nutshells! Available @ NYLI as eBooks!

The Elf was definitely convinced of the advantages of NYLI membership!

As NYLI looks forward to another year of research services, we’d like to take this time to sincerely wish all a healthy, happy & prosperous 2023!
