There are two primary sites for faculty to publish their scholarship online.
Law school policy encourages all faculty to publish their scholarship on Legal Scholarship Network (LSN). LSN allows publishing of PDFs of articles with copyright permission and working papers. Your administrative assistant should be able to assist you with the details. For help posting your articles to LSN, please contact Joanna Hooste at the Law Library.
2. Cornell Legal Scholarship Repository
The Cornell Legal Scholarship Repository provides free permanent online access to conference papers, lectures, reports, workshop presentations, pre-prints and other works in progress, and published articles. It allows more types of publication formats than LSN and provides free access to the public with static links. Current publication series include:
Submitting your scholarship for online publication in the Repository is easy. Follow these steps:
- Make sure you retain the copyright on your scholarship. For information on managing your copyrights, including a sample publication agreement, see the Create Change website.
- Submit your completed paper as a Microsoft Word file. PDFs and WordPerfect files can also be accommodated.
- PowerPoint slides, video, and other media are also welcome as ancillary material.
- Submit an abstract along with your contribution. The abstract will be searchable by Internet search engines such as Google, and provides an important means of access to your work.
- Your contributions may be withdrawn from the repository at any time at your request.
Please email your contributions or questions to Jean Pajerek, Repository Project Manager (255-4018).
