Library services
Through Library & Information Services (L&IS), the Nova Scotia Barristers’ Society serves lawyers and contributes to their continuing competence in a number of ways:
- through the provision of reference and research assistance;
- current awareness to the membership;
- document delivery and interlibrary loan services;
- research and resource guides;
- online services;
- training to the membership;
- developing informative contents for Society publications; and
- library support to Council, Society committees and staff.
Services are available through the Barristers’ Library in Halifax, and through satellite collections housed at the Kings County Barristers’ Library in Kentville and the Simon J. Khattar QC Memorial Barristers’ Library in Sydney.
Lawyers have access to Westlaw Canada’s LawSource at the Barristers’ Library in Halifax and the 13 county barristers’ libraries throughout the province.
