About LawCentral Canada

LawCentral Canada is a portal or collection of links to law-related information and educational resources on justice and legal issues of interest to Canadians. Our purpose is to create an educated public who understands their rights and responsibilities under the law, and who knows where to go for legal help and referral.

LawCentral Canada is geared towards the general public and for those who work with the public. All of the links to information and organizations are chosen and evaluated by librarians, and abstracts contain information pulled directly (where available) from the organizations’ own websites. You can learn about how we select the links for LawCentral Canada by reading our selection criteria.

LawCentral Canada is a program of the Legal Resource Centre of Alberta Ltd, a non-profit and registered charity working in association with the Faculty of Extension, University of Alberta. It is supported by funding from the Alberta Law Foundation.

LawCentral Canada is the website formerly known as the Access to Justice Network (ACJNet).
