This bibliography brings CLIC's original bibliography up to date as of January 1986. It includes verified references according to the following editorial priorities and guidelines: to be comprehensive with respect to Canadian materials in all subject areas; to increase coverage of materials relating to substantive computer law issues; to reduce coverage of material relating to automated law office management; and to retain present coverage in all other subject areas.

This is the second in a series of comprehensive annual reference guides to the use of computers in all the disciplines of the humanities. Like its predecessor, this volume provides a taxonomy of the field and an annotated survey of publications, research centers, text archives and termbanks, electronic communications, software, and hardware relevant to the humanities. It also includes special larger entries for important software that offer up-to-date information, and practical help in applying that information to research projects and instruction in colleges and universities. For the 1989-1990 edition, Lancashire has, for the first time, appointed an international advisory board of specialists to assist in discovering, assembling, and evaluating materials for inclusion; and, to keep up with the rapidly developing nature of the field and its international constituency, Lancashire has included many completely new or revised sections, including a major new chapter on computing in Law. A monumental work of current and enduring value, The Humanities Computing Yearbook will prove invaluable to a wide range of students, teachers, and researchers in humanities and social sciences, computational linguistics, and related fields in computer science.

The inventory contains monographs covering both substantive law and historical aspects of the law as well as finding tools such as case and statute citators, bibliographies, dictionaries, lexicons, and encyclopedias. It also includes continuing legal education and law society publications. It begins with materials published from 1970 onwards.
