    "Canada Law Book legal publications have served lawyers, law librarians and human resource professionals for almost 150 years. Products include CD-ROMs, looseleafs, texts, digests, journals, online subscriptions, and videos.
    You need to pinpoint legal information at the drop of a hat. At Canada Law Book, we've been helping the Canadian legal community do just that --- for almost 150 years.
    In fact, our roots go as far back as 1855, when we first published the Upper Canada Law Journal. Then before the turn of the century, we produced Canadian Criminal cases, and later the Dominion Law Reports. Now these historic Canadian reports are also published on CD-ROM -- a technology not even imagined at the time. " [fr. website 040623]
