The Manitoba Courts have restricted access to the courts as a proactive measure to reduce and slow down the spread of COVID-19. While the Great Library will remain open, members may prefer to take advantage of our services remotely.
We can scan or download sections of texts and email them to you, subject to copyright restrictions. If you require a complete text, we can prepare it for pickup at the staff entrance on Kennedy. Please contact us by phone or email and we would be happy to help.
This is the time to take advantage of all the resources available to you behind the Member’s Portal. We subscribe to several collections of e-books, the Rangefindr sentencing digest, HeinOnline and the vLex caselaw database.
We will continue to distribute the newsletters in our Current Awareness collection. We know your work doesn’t stand still, and we will support you in whatever way we can. Please contact us by phone (204-945-1958) or email (library@lawsociety.mb.ca).
The Great Library will be closed on Monday, February 17th for Louis Riel Day.
Normal hours will resume on Tuesday, Februrary 18th.
After hours access is available for lawyers by showing their Fast Track card and signing in at the security desk at the Kennedy Street staff entrance. After hours access is 4:30 – 10:00 p.m. Monday to Friday, and 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. on weekends and statutory holidays.
