Open Law Library

Building a platform for better government lawmaking and improved citizen access.

The law should be free, accessible, and usable without technical or legal restrictions.

Great to see our work with the District of Columbia. @joshuabrowder writes: "I was pleasantly surprised that D.C. hosts the source of 'truth' for their laws on Github; if a law changes, a piece of code ... immediately notifies me." https://t.co/OYtDgLpQg9

We developed the Open Law Platform to provide open access to computer-readable official laws. The platform includes notifications, updates in real-time, and track changes. Check it out at https://t.co/yyyZPMpnfY

Our nonprofit partners with governments to help them do exactly this! Sample blackline for humans: https://t.co/cuFOa7hZ3x; and diff for programmers: https://t.co/joqgTe5mR5. If you'd like the same for your community's laws, please reach out!

@LTechnologist We are a non-profit working with governments to publish their laws directly to the public in a free, user-friendly format. We ensure that laws are accessible - mobile-friendly, 508 compliant, usable on older phones and with slow connections. DC: https://t.co/5LHGcjZEyx

Great read about @fordhamlawlib's international law collection, and how decisions are made about what to collect and in what format.

In our newest feature, Collection Spotlight, we take a look at s member library's FCIL collection. Our first spotlight, by @aallnet & FCIL-SIS member Janet Kearney, gives a glimpse into @fordhamlawlib's FCIL… https://t.co/9AgwPTbhfR

@margarethagan We work directly with governments to improve the drafting, codifying and publishing process using our Open Law Draft platform. We help governments make their laws available to the public in a free, user-friendly format.

I just wrote a lot about running a #legaltech design sprint @JoinPaladin. If you work in law, access to justice, or product design, you might find it interesting.
