Cardiff Index to Legal Abbreviations - A Web Based Index for Foreign & Int'l Abbreviations

The Cardiff Index to Legal Abbreviations (from the
University of Cardiff, Wales) is "a web-based service
that allows you to search for the meaning of abbreviations
for English language legal publications from the British Isles,
the Commonwealth and the United States, including those
covering international and comparative law. A wide selection
of major foreign language law publications is also included.
Publications from over 295 jurisdictions are featured in the
Index. The database mainly covers law reports and law
periodicals, but some legislative publications and major
textbooks are also included. The Index is still under
development."
