 The Best Citation Manual! May 12, 2008
The ALWD Citation Manual is better than the Bluebook because of its organization and its clarity. It truly is much easier to use than the competition.

Our professor required this manual because he is one of the authors. It's a citation manual. Quite unremarkable. It's adequate.

...smells like cat pee.
And my cat totally didn't pee on it!
I'm pretty burned out on researching. Please keep me up to date with how helpful this review is!
 Paralegal now has a clue April 3, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
As a paralegal, I assist my supervising attorneys in writing briefs for administrative hearings and federal court. We had a brief due in which we were citing federal law, California Education Code, and a plethora of State-generated publications and web content that were created in response to State and Federal mandates. I had no idea how to format the legal cites for some of our more unusual sources of data. I ordered the ALWD Citation Manual and had it in my hands within days. It was a little confusing to look up which types of cites applied to my materials, though. Some things were pretty easy to figure out, but other things were more cryptic. In the end, we figured it out and it helped us get our brief out on time and properly formatted.

While I agree in principle that a citation book should be readable and easy to use, I find ALWD to be decidedly useless in the real practice of law. Although forced to purchase the book as a 1L, I have to meet an attorney, judge or legal scholar that uses it or would like it to replace the Bluebook. In fact, during a firm interview, the attorney and I joked that we would like to start an anti-ALWD club to prevent 1Ls from being tricked into preferring ALWD over Bluebook. Sorry ALWD.
