Law Library
Library Faculty & Staff Directory
The Valparaiso University Law Library team consists of six professional librarians and six staff members. Our librarians all have master's degrees in library science and three also have Juris Doctor's degrees. All have extensive legal research experience and four teach the first year and advanced legal research courses.
It is impossible to run a successful library without highly skilled and energetic staff members. Valparaiso University School of Law is fortunate to have some of the best. They are involved with the day-to-day activities of the library, including circulation, interlibrary loan and processing the variety of material that comes into the library.
