How do I find a book or magazine? In the catalogueTo search the catalog, you must be in possession of bibliographic references. Beforehand you must perform a search by subject/matter in the legal databases available at the library (Jura, Strada lex, Jurisquare). Demonstration in pictures 1°) Enter one or more terms (title word, author,...) in the search bar of the Catalogue of the libraries of the University of Namur. Feel free to use quotation marks for less noise.2°) You get a list of results sorted by relevance. These can then be filtered using facets. If you select several values within a facet, the "OR" operator is applied EXCEPT for the "Author" and "Subject" facets, which apply the "AND" operator to refine the search.Select only physical resources or online resourcesDocument types: sort by number of occurrences.Book, text encompasses both books in paper and electronic format.Periodical encompasses both journals in paper and electronic format.Electronic resourceincludes only electronic referencesOther types of documents available: memoir, comic strip, video, thesis, maps and atlases, score, sound document, editorial collection, article, object...Please note, Open Access references in the UCL Institutional Directory are also included in the catalog>adding new document types: conference paper, working paper, contribution to a collective work, report, preprint, patent...Author: authors are classified by number of occurrences with a limit of 50.Library:"UNamur-Droit": includes all documents available at the CRIDS law library and documentation center.

This is a first in terms of pedagogical approach: to have all the students and teachers of the Faculty of law, all blocks (bachelor in daytime and in staggered timetable) and programmes combined, work for an academic year on the same theme. From courses to practical work, including conferences, cultural and artistic events and civic engagement, all the activities proposed by the Faculty of law focus on the same theme: childhood in a migratory context. The project is called "Fill rouge" (Red thread). After a successful first four months, the momentum is building for the second half of the academic year.

Are you a student at the UNamur or a member of staff, and do you face situations that require legal explanations? The two Legal Labs for consumer law and for students are there for you.

Gnoari Tankoano and Mathieu Traore, PhD students from Bukina Faso, have just spent three months at the Faculty of Law of UNamur. Earlier, Professor René Robaye from Namur went to Ouagadougou, capital of Burkina Faso, for a short academic stay. These exchanges were made possible thanks to the Erasmus + International Credit Mobility programme and the UNamur International Relations Department. Here is a look back at this enriching experience, both on an academic and human level.

More than 300 students in the Bachelor of Law programme, from both the daytime and the evening shift, took their heads out of their syllabi for an evening to project themselves into their future. Like every year, their faculty had invited them to meet with law professionals. Each of them shared their passion, their daily life, but also the darker aspects of their work. It was a perfect opportunity to discover what lies behind the many opportunities in law, grouped into five panels: lawyers, the judiciary, notaries, bailiffs, and politicians (parliamentary attachés or diplomats).
