IRLII Cases now Classified by Subject

After pioneering the online availability of Irish legal materials, through its involvement with BAILII and IRLII, the Faculty of Law in University College Cork has developed a further service for those who wish to keep abreast of legal developments in Ireland.
All judgments added to the IRLII index of cases since July 2005 are now allocated to subject areas and assigned with keywords. This enables users to quickly scan through recent cases for issues that interest them and researchers can instantly view cases which relate to any given subject area. The project director, Professor John Mee, hopes that this initiative will result in easier accessibility of decided cases in Ireland and a greater understanding of legal issues generally.
The IRLII index of cases is accessible at http://www.index.irlii.org.
A RSS feed of recent cases is also available at http://www.ucc.ie/law/irlii/rss/irliiindex.xml.
