The Law Library.
Library management for barristers’ chambers.
The Law Library by JADE is a multi-tenant library management platform built for barristers’ chambers. It brings a chambers’ physical law-book collection and its digital library of case-law and legislation PDFs together in one catalogue.
Every book, shelf, and PDF is searchable through an OPAC catalogue, so finding the right authority never depends on remembering which room it lives in.

Who it’s for.
Chambers
Run one shared library across every room and shelf, with a single catalogue everyone in chambers can search and trust.
Barristers
Find and borrow the right authority fast — search the physical and digital collection together instead of hunting shelf by shelf.
Clerks & Librarians
Catalogue new arrivals in moments, steward the collection, and control who can see and borrow what across chambers.
Why Lawlibrary.io?
OPAC semantic search
Dense-vector search over the catalogue finds the right book by what it is about, not just what its title happens to say.
Physical + digital library
Shelved law books and a digital library of case-law and legislation PDFs sit in one catalogue, searched the same way.
Ownership & sharing
Book ownership and room stewardship are tracked precisely, with visibility and sharing groups controlling what any chambers can see.
Fast accessioning
Add a new book to the catalogue by scanning its cover with a phone camera — no manual data entry to hold up the shelf.
Connected to JADE
Cases and legislation in the catalogue link straight through to JADE, keeping research one click from the shelf.
