J. Myron Jacobstein�s bibliography spans more than four decades of dedicated scholarship. Perhaps his greatest contribution to the legal community is the treatise that he and Roy Mersky wrote, Fundamentals of Legal Research.
Jacobstein and Mersky�a partnership as enduring and endearing as Rodgers and Hammerstein, Fred and Ginger, Bert and Ernie. Together this dynamic law librarian duo took on the world of legal bibliography, frequently with incredible foresight. Their collaborations were ahead of the curve in many ways�predicting the impact of computer-assisted legal research, advancing a hybrid approach to research (traditional plus computer), explaining the impact of vendor neutral citation, and helping researchers understand the interdisciplinary nature of contemporary legal research.
