Here is the list of motley bibliographies to date in my Directed Reading series inaugurated in March of 2008 at the Ratio Juris blog. Some of these lists I’ve since updated a bit, so if you want the latest version, just e-mail me. I hope to finish posting all of the proposed bibliographies before proceeding to systematically update them. Of course I welcome suggestions and comments. Many of these lists were first posted at various law blogs and some are found online at several university and other library sites. They are far from exhaustive and probably more than a tad idiosyncratic (especially because most of them were put together in the first instance for yours truly), nevertheless, I think they should prove useful for basic research endeavors. (At the respective blog posts, click on the appropriate highlighted term for the bibliography in Word doc. form.)
