Description
|
|
The Global Legal Information Network (GLIN) is a searchable database of
official texts of laws, regulations, judicial decisions, legislative records, and other
complementary legal sources contributed by governmental agencies and international
organizations worldwide. Full text documents in original languages are available for many
countries and institutions. A complete list of the countries and institutions that have
granted permission to provide full text access to their laws/legal materials is accessible
at:
http://www.glin.gov/publicFullTextJurisdictions.action.
Each document is accompanied by a
summary in English and, in many cases in additional languages, plus subject terms selected
from the multilingual index to GLIN.
