Congratulations to HeinOnline for its World Constitutions Illustrated: Contemporary & Historical Documents & Resources being selected one of the year's Outstanding Academic Titles by the editorial staff of Choice. Out of 7,292 titles reviewed during the past year only 668 publications made Choice's Outstanding Academic Titles list this year. The list appears in the January 2011 issue.

The World Constitutions Illustrated collection includes the current constitution for every country in their original-language format, substantial constitutional histories, more than 1,600 classic books about constitutional law with specific chapters tied to specific countries, more than 1,800 links to scholarly articles about constitutional development, links to online resources related to political development and a bibliography of select constitutional books. Product Description.
Webinar. HeinOnline is conducting a World Constitutions Illustrated webinar on January 27, 2011. From the webinar announcement:
Since our last Webinar in May, we have added thousands of additional pages, hundreds of books, more links, and expanded the constitutional hierarchies for several countries. From browsing the various country resources available, the bibliographies, links to articles, to search options available, we will explore these and various other features embedded throughout the resource. We will also briefly talk about our approach to expanding the breadth and depth of material available.
