The library of the Louisiana Supreme Court is moving to new quarters in, where else, the French Quarter and is offering large quantities of duplicate stock that they aren't taking along with them. There are all sorts of books (remember books?) that they are either giving away to academic and public libraries or are selling at very low cost (really, VERY, VERY low cost) and are requesting that you pay mailing costs.
The list of books and monogaphs includes ALRs, Fed 1st, 2d and 3d and the C.J.S. volumes. Not only are there federal materials, there are volumes from Louisiana and other states. There are also British and Canadian materials, and some of the domestic and foreign volumes date back to the 1800s. This is a perfect way for libraries to complete their collections. (No, I'm not on commission.)
The library has notified libraries both in Louisiana and around the country and some books have already been requested. But many valuable titles remain to buy “for bargain basement prices.”
