Popis: WITHIN ACADEMIC libraries there is always the divide between postgraduates and undergraduates and it is inevitable that their needs differ, although one must remember that to become a postgraduate one will have been an undergraduate, at least in most normal circumstances. Many of the ideas and ideals put forward in this article can equally well apply to both categories in other subjects than law. However, it is true to say that law undergraduates usually have to deal with a subject which is a totally new concept which they have not usually studied at Advanced Level, so that special attention needs to be given to the basic concepts of law. Undergraduates' thoughts lead immediately to the next set of exams and how they can get hold of all the material required to pass these exams, especially in law which is heavily based on examinations. It is especially difficult to persuade undergraduates that they could perhaps find the cases they need in other sources than those on their tutorial sheets. They also believe that material should be there when they want it; they forget that there could be more than a hundred other people wanting the same volume.
