About the Journal

First in its field, the Rutgers Computer and Technology Law Journal strives to keep judges, policymakers, practitioners and the academic community abreast of the dynamic legal issues arising from society's interaction with computers and emerging technologies. Rutgers law students founded the Journal in 1969, far in advance of the ubiquity of computers and networking technology. Since its inception, the Journal has maintained a tradition of excellence and has designed each issue to foster critical discourse on the technological breakthroughs impacting the legal landscape. The Journal's success is reflected in a subscription base of about four hundred national and international subscribers, as well as in its citation in numerous texts, articles and judicial opinions, including those of the United States Supreme Court.

Semiannually, the Journal publishes authoritative articles, essays and book reviews by leading commentators and jurists, as well as other topical pieces, including symposia and proposals for statutory revision.

In addition to providing respected commentary, the Journal serves as an invaluable research tool by cataloging technological articles in its Index and Annual Selected Bibliography on Computers, Technology and the Law.

The Journal is available on the Lexis? and Westlaw? databases, and will soon be available via the World Wide Web.
