The International Law Reports (ILR) began publication in 1929 as "the only publication in the world devoted to the regular and systematic reporting in English of decisions of international courts and arbitrators."
Relevant national court cases are also included. Coverage dates from 1919. ILR is a publication of the Lauterpacht Research Centre for International Law at the University of Cambridge. Per the publisher's website, because of the standing and scope of its coverage, ILR is "widely cited in judgments of international and national tribunals.
No other publication enjoys such an authoritative position in international law. No other publication provides a comparable coverage of case law in this field".
The ILR is noteworthy for the quality of the translations of the decisions. In addition, each volume contains an extensive index. Cumulative indexes are also issued periodically. These indexes are indispensable for finding relevant case law on one's topic.
The Library subscribes to the print ILR volumes which are located on the 10th Floor - KZ199.I58.
