Recommended Titles and Treatises
To help provide access to the Texas State Law Library's legal resources, the reference librarians have selected the most noteworthy titles in our collection and arranged them here by subject. The titles listed for each subject feature a brief summary written by a reference librarian, and each subject's titles are divided into those that are specific to Texas law and those that aren't.

Texas practice guide: evidence
2 volumes. Updated annually.
This title is one of elements of the Texas Practice Guide. This set is West's "answer" to the Texas Litigation Guide. For years this series was published in loose-leaf binders, but recently the format has changed so that each title in the series is published annually in pamphlet form. The series is written in outline format so information can be located with a quick scan of the contents. References to additional West Publishing's titles are included as well as relevant Topic and Key Numbers. Procedural checklists and forms are provided with each chapter. The final volume of each title includes a Table of Statutes and Table of Cases that list all the statutes and cases included in the title. Additionally, West provides an index volume that covers the Texas Practice Guide in its entirety to help locate where a subject is covered within the series.
