What Subscribers Say

The Hamilton County Law Library has been a tremendous assistance to the UC Fire Science & Emergency Management program. The Law Library provides links to recent cases involving fire & EMS departments, which are then briefed in our FIRE & EMS AND SAFETY LAW newsletter (over 2,000 fire department officers, others are signed up). UC Fire Science students have access to the most recent decisions, thanks to the wonderful staff of the Hamilton County Law Library.
