Abstract
With publication of the final law schedule, the Library of Congress classification system for legal materials is virtually complete. Examination of the completed schedules reveals some difficulties for reference use because of the assignment of non-law numbers to law-related materials, the arrangement of certain subjects within the law schedules, and the detailed nature of the law schedules themselves. Law libraries and reference librarians can take steps at the local level to address some of these problems and make the LC classification system more suitable for legal research collections.
