                      EDITORIAL






  We kick off volume 3 with an issue that covers the spectrum of
legal research materials. The fact that it is a single issue may sur-
prise some of you who were expecting volume 3 to begin with a
double issue. The double issue will appear as a combination of num-
bers 3 and 4, but more about that next time.
  This time we begin with an article by Prof. Erwin Surrency of the
University of Georgia Law School on English case reports that were
published in the United States. It is a lucid and useful guide to these
sometimes intimidating materials. It is an added pleasure to publish
the work of Prof. Surrency who, as former editor of the American
Journal of Legal History, brought so much information to the legal
community.
  The second article is a piece by Kathleen Gursky of the Universi-
ty of Chicago Law Library. Ms. Gursky describes the potentials for
co-operative storage of materials among law libraries by high-
lighting the potential role of the Center for Research Libraries. Ms.
Gursky has prepared a detailed bibliography of the legal materials
held by C.R.L. While it was too lengthy to publish here, a sampling
is presented. The entire bibliography will be published as a part of
Boalt Hall Bibliography Series.
  The third article is a detailed analysis of AmJur2d, the national
legal encyclopedia, co-authored by Jeanne Benioff of McGeorge
Law Library and Kathleen Vanden Heuvel of the Berkeley Law
Library. This detailed look at AmJur2d parallels the treatment of
Corpus Juris Secundum in volume 1, number 1.
  The fourth article is by Elizabeth Day, currently a student at the
University of Puget Sound Law School. Ms. Day examines the
issues of computers and the legal profession. She looks at computers
from a number of perspectives and presents a selective bibliography
on the subject.
