"DePaul Journal for Social Justice".

DePaul University College of Law (Chicago, IL) has begun the publication of the "DePaul Journal for Social Justice," a new journal whose mission is to provide practitioners and academics in public interest with a scholarly alternative to "traditional law journal publications." It will be published twice a year and an annual subscription costs $30.

The mission of the new journal is to promote the discussion of policy issues among legal professionals, public interest practitioners, community leaders, academics, law school clinics, public interest centers and students. The school said that contributors "are free to share the wisdom of their experience without feeling compelled to shed their advocates role or having to cite as comprehensively as typical law journals demand."

The journal is an opportunity for public interest advocates to share their aspirations, the school said, with information on the innovative ways and techniques used by public interest lawyers in dealing with "a lack of resources, unresponsive courts, overlarge caseloads and continuing restrictions on what kinds of cases can be brought."

"DePaul Journal of Art, Technology & Intellectual Property," a biannual published since 1991, "Business & Commercial Law Journal," launched in 2002, "Health Law Journal," published three times a year since 2000, "Journal of Sports Law & Contemporary Problems," a biannual produced since 2003, and the school's flagship title, "DePaul Law Review," a biannual launched in 1951.
