Linn County Law Library & Self Help Legal Center
The Linn County Law Library & Self Help Legal Center is open to the public. The library houses the County's core of legal research materials, including print products and online databases. The law library supports equal access to justice. Law library catalogs are more than inventory systems—they are a public‑facing justice infrastructure. They make legal information findable, understandable, and usable by the people who need it most. LibraryThing now contains legal databases and web resources that directly advance our Access to Justice (A2J) initiatives.
