Legal research trends have changed a lot in the last five years. As more and more information goes digi-tal, guidance on electronic sources is needed now more than ever. That’s exactly what the latest edi-tion of The Bluebook strives to offer in its complete overhaul of the citation formats for Internet, elec-tronic media, and other non-print resources. Other noteworthy updates include a number of small changes to the Tables and new citation for-mats for IMF and UN documents, opinion letters, model codes, restatements, and uniform acts. Subscribers are invited to stop by the law library to explore the new Blue-book in person, but a link to the complete list of changes and updates that appear in the 20th edition is also available on the Duke University law library blog: http://dukelawref.blogspot
