There are 15 Trial Court Law Libraries located across Massachusetts to serve the courts, attorneys and the public. We are here to help you with your legal information needs.

Law library service during COVID-19

The Trial Court Law Libraries continue to provide services remotely as they have throughout the pandemic.  At this time, all of the law libraries are open on a  limited basis.  Due to different challenges in the various locations, there will be some variation in terms of services offered.  Some libraries are allowing patron access for circulation purposes only while others are offering onsite use by appointment.   Please contact your local law library to find out the services offered and local courthouse entrance protocol.
