Dear Ajit,

 Law library is distinguished in two types one serving for Law Schools & Universities and the other serving law institutions like Supreme Court, High Courts, Law Ministries and other law related institutions.  Other than that, a national level law library i.e. Indian Law Institute Library established in 1958 is also there.  If you would count the first law library in India it may be part of Calcutta University established in 1857 or Calcuta High court established in 1861.  Central Secretariat Library CSL) is also one of many big libraries in India dealing law subjects. 

 However in e-Law Library pioneering efforts were taken by Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in association with NIC.  Law Ministry has sanctioned some 900 crore fund for e-Law Library for free access to law movement in Public domain. For worldwide project you may refer  a book "Digital Library: Legal Education & Research" from Mohan Law House, Delhi 01123383381.  Otherwise you may contact me for further clarification.

Good Day,

 

Akash Singh

Assistant Librarian
