If you are looking for a subject specific treatise here are four great places to start:
1. Your law librarian. It's just that simple. Most law librarians will know of at least one subject specific treatise for every legal subject. And if we don't know immediately, we can help you find one, usually by using...
2. The online catalog. This is the best way to see what is available in your library. Sometimes catalog searches can be tricky so if you're still stuck you might like to try using...
3. A research guide. Almost every research guide will point you both primary law and secondary law. These are written by (who else?) law librarians for your benefit. But sometimes you just can't find a good research guide so you might try using...
4. The Georgetown Law Library treatise finder. This is a subject specific list compiling basic resources for 75+ legal subjects from Administrative Law to Zoning Law. And, there are pictures! Okay, its just pictures of the covers of the books but no one is perfect.
Remember, your specific issue will probably not be have it's own treatise. Instead, find a subject area and then use the index to find the section of the treatise that deals with your issue.
