+ History of the Caselaw Access Project +

+

+ The Caselaw Access Project scanned the entirety of the Harvard Law + School Library's physical collection of American case law and made + it machine-readable in a consistent format available online. This + process was funded in part by an industry partner who worked with us + for the first few years post-digitization to provide access to the + data to researchers and the public, rather than other commercial + entities. To facilitate that agreement, the Library Innovation Lab + (LIL) maintained the case.law website as the primary access point + for the data. Those agreements have now expired, and there is no + longer a need to have any form of metered access to the data. +

+ +

+ LIL is primarily a research organization — working to investigate + new ways of accessing, interacting with, and creating knowledge. To + create more room for our team to do exploratory work, and to + consolidate efforts, we've transitioned case.law to a static state + and started partnerships with other organizations in the open legal + data space to shepherd this data into its next phase. You'll see at + various points on the site how to access the data in a variety of + ways going forward. Until September 2024 you can also still visit + old.case.law to use the previous + version of the site. +

+ +

+ If you'd like to hear more, the + Caselaw Access Project documentary + details the project's origins and demonstrates the scanning process + in action. Or you can read former director Adam Ziegler's blog post, + The Caselaw Access Project — Then, Now, Tomorrow" + to learn more about the impact of equitable access to caselaw. +

+

What data do we have?
