Studies in Law Related Information Behavior

Rob Richards, a law librarian and legal information consultant in Philadelphia writes: "A list of empirical studies of law-related information behavior is now available at http://home.comcast.net/~richards1000/InformationBehavior.html . If you know of additional studies not listed, I'd be grateful to learn of them. Persons interested in this topic may be interested to know of the availability of a major new dissertation on this topic:

Stephann Makri, A Study of Lawyers' Information Behaviour Leading to the Development of Two Methods for Evaluating Electronic Resources (2008) (unpublished Ph.D. dissertation, University College London), also available at http://eprints.ucl.ac.uk/14729/ ." We are always grateful to Rob for sharing such insights with us.
