  The goal of LSN is to facilitate the distribution of scholarly information related to law to legal, economics, and business scholars and practitioners throughout the world. LSN is a division of Social Science Research Network (SSRN), which also sponsors the Accounting Research Network (ARN), the Economics Research Network (ERN), the Financial Economics Network (FEN), the Latin American Network (LAN) and the Litigation Network (LitNet). LSN publishes a series of electronic journals of abstracts -- of working papers as well as articles accepted for publication -- in various areas of law. These journals will be distributed principally via the Internet, but also may be provided by paper, fax, or diskette. In addition to including abstracts of scholarly papers, LSN also publishes weekly Professional Announcements that include announcements such as important professional meetings, calls for papers and special issues of journals, and Professional Job Listings that carry announcements of open positions in academia and industry. LSN encourages readers of these abstracting journals to communicate directly with other subscribers concerning their own and other's research. To facilitate this LSN publishes a postal address, an email address, a telephone number and a fax number for one author of each research paper. LSN also attempts to provide an email address for each of the co-authors.
