William J. Jameson Law Library

Established in 1911, the Jameson Law Library’s facilities, collection and services are available to students, faculty and staff of the Alexander Blewett III School of Law at the University of Montana, members of the Montana Bar and the general public who require access to legal materials. We support excellence in legal research, teaching, scholarship and practice in Montana.

The Law Library staff is committed to providing the highest level of library services we can to all patrons. We provide reference services to all library patrons. Our hours are 8 am to 5 pm, Monday through Friday, and closed on Federal Holidays. Please contact us by email at law.library@umontana.edu or call us at (406)243-2699.
