Welcome to the Forensics Library. Browse the library by topic or search for documents by keyword. Some materials are viewable only by practicing criminal defense lawyers but most are open to the public.

We invite you to submit materials to the library. We welcome briefs, memoranda, transcripts, training materials, weblinks--anything that may help lawyers deal more effectively with forensic evidence. Click "submit a document" to upload materials directly from your computer. All submissions will be reviewed by the library steering committee before being posted for public view.
