Cardiff Index to Legal Abbreviations
A web-based service which allows users to search for the meaning of abbreviations for the titles of English language legal publications. It  also provides a range of additional information to assist tracing publications. At present the Index includes abbreviations for titles of law publications from the British Isles and Commonwealth. Soon, abbreviations for United States publications and those covering international and comparative law will be added. A selection of foreign language law publications from Europe will be included. The database mainly covers law reports and law periodicals, but also some legislative publications and major textbooks. It  can be searched from an abbreviation (such as H.L.M.) to find the relevant title (Housing Law Monitor) and also from a title (such as Criminal Law Review) to find the official or most commonly used abbreviation (Crim.L.R.).
