. Law review From Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_review"A law review is a scholarly journal focusing on legal issues, normally published by an organization of students at a law school or through a bar association.[1] The term is also used to describe the extracurricular activity at law schools of publishing the journal.
.Law reviews should not be confused with non-scholarly publications such as the New York Law Journal or The American Lawyer, which are independent, professional newspapers and news-magazines that cover the daily practice of law (see legal periodical)."

University Presses PDF (46 KB) Sources PDF (85 KB) .A recent article about law review journals being indexed by databases outside of the field of law contains extensive discussion and charts of data regarding this topic.
Koulikov, M. (2010).Indexing and full-text coverage of law review articles in non-legal databases: An initial study.
Law Library Journal, (102)1, 39-57. This article includes these tables: Table 1 Summary: Total Coverage (Full-text Databases) Table 2 Summary: Total Coverage (Indexing/Abstracting Databases) Table 3 Details of Coverage in Full-Text Databases Table 4 Unique Titles in Full-Text Databases Appendix A Journal List Journal Title Impact Factor School Rank The conclusions section of this article contains this mild statement:"Initial though they may be, the results of this study do seem to support the statement that law reviews are covered meaningfully in non-legal databases. Much has been said about what interdisciplinarity may mean for law, but the question of how the literature of the law can contribute to other disciplines is equally as important."
.In viewing the Findlaw subject lists of law reviews, it becomes very clear that law is an interdisciplinary field. There are, for example, law reviews for education law, banking law, criminal law, environmental law, health law and transportation law. It would seem likely that such interdisciplinary law journals would be indexed by databases in education, business, criminal justice, environmental sciences, and medical and health databases respectively. Such indexing of legal publications by "nonlegal databases", as Koulikov describes them, is to be expected as part of thorough coverage of these subject disciplines.
.Education Resources Complete, a database produced by EbscoHost covers these law journals that EbscoHost lists as law related:
Brigham Young University Education and Law Journal Education and the Law Education Policy Analysis Archives Higher Education FERPA Bulletin Issues in Science and Technology Journal of Commonwealth Law and Legal Education Journal of Correctional Education Journal of Disability Policy Studies Journal of Law and Education Journal of Legal Studies Education Journal of Offender Rehabilitation Journal of Policy and Practice in Intellectual Disabilities Law Teacher Campus Legal Advisor Campus Security Report College Athletics and the Law Disability Compliance for Higher Education Perspective (08889732) Yearbook of Education Law .Indeed some fields have law as a sub-discipline, such as the field of business and the subordinate field of business law, so it would be a rather incomplete business database that did not include law and business law journals that contain substantial business related law content.
http://www.ebscohost.com/titleLists/buh-subject.htm . Business Source Premier Lists These Law Related Journals Accounting and the Public Interest Advancing the Consumer Interest American Bankruptcy Law Journal American Bar Association Journal American Business Law Journal American University International Law Review Antitrust Bulletin Arbitration Journal Benefits Law Journal Berkeley Journal of Employment and Labor Law Berkeley Journal of Gender, Law and Justice Berkeley Journal of International Law Berkeley Technology Law Journal Berkeley Women's Law Journal Brigham Young University Law Review Brookings-Wharton Papers on Financial Services California Law Review snip .Finding law journals in the databases of other fields illustrates the outreach of law scholars beyond the field of law when they publish in journals indexed beyond the walls of law databases. This unfortunately does not touch another issue. There is an abundance of legal research, thinking and analysis in the journals of other fields. Many law students, law faculty and lawyers I have encountered are not cognizant of the wealth of law content in other people's databases.
This is not unusual for content of one field to be found in the sources of other fields..

One such field is the field of medical law. Medical practitioners are a regular part of many law practices in this field and two Yahoo Groups have a body of shared content, one of which archives, in the practice of this interdisciplinary field.
LegalMed http://groups.yahoo.com/group/legalmed/ . LNC Exchange (Archived) http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LNCExchange/ Membership is required to view archives and participate in these groups. .In the legal medical world, some legal practitioners recognize the importance of medical databases and medical research in the work of lawyers litigating medically related cases such as medical malpractice cases. Law practice is weakened in fields where the focus is only on Lexis Nexis and Westlaw and no attention is paid to law content from other databases. This gap in the thinking of some law students, professors and practitioners is a more serious issue in my thinking than the extent to which law journals reach the eyes of users of other fields through the indexing of non-legal databases.
