Russell Fox Library

The Library

The Russell Fox Library is a legal information resource supporting proceedings in the Supreme Court, Magistrates Court and the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal.

The main collection is located on the second floor of the Law Courts of the ACT Building, 6 Knowles Place, Canberra City, and the reading area is open to the public.

Opening hours are from 8:30 am to 4:51 pm Monday to Friday.

The library collection consists of judgments, legislation, law reports, textbooks and periodicals relevant to ACT court proceedings.

Since 1966 the library has clipped court-related news from the Canberra Times, and from 1992 it has been maintaining an index to these clippings.

Library books may be borrowed by approved clients. There is no longer an annual fee for borrowers.
