Foreword The Legal Resources Foundation was established in 1984 to meet an expressed need to improve the accessibility of legal and information services to all sections of the population. Indeed the first sub-objective in the Trust Deed is “to initiate and support projects which promote the development of legal resources in Zimbabwe”. The Founding Trustees recognised that there was at the time a dearth of legal literature, both for the legal system and for the benefit of the general public. It is therefore no surprise that the Legal Publications Unit was one of the first departments to be established. To showcase the valuable contribution the LRF has made over the past 30 years to the jurisprudence and legal system of Zimbabwe we have produced this catalogue that provides a summary overview of the wide range of publications the Unit has produced. Amongst the LRF’s publications, the Guides to Zimbabwean law - Delict, Criminal Law, Administrative Law – have proved imperative sources for law students. Similarly, the Zimbabwe Law Reports, produced by the LRF since 1985, have contributed significantly to the jurisprudence as they have been a primary point of reference in the judgments handed down by the courts. The LRF continues to publish valuable resources, available to all who need them – check our website (www.lrf.co.zw) for current and new titles. Deborah Barron National Director 3
