Digital dictionaries

CAIJ offers a digital adaptation of Me Hubert Reid’s Dictionnaire de droit québécois et canadien, an essential reference tool for legal professionals. This dictionary is a credible reference source for all legal professionals and others needing to understand a given legal term. This resource is complemented by a series of private law dictionaries and bilingual lexicons from the Centre Paul-André Crépeau. You can access these resources directly online, or by consulting research tools such as annotated statutes and online doctrine.

CAIJ also offers works in paper format, such as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders: DSM-5-TR, 5th ed. revised text by the American Psychiatric Association, the Dictionnaire québécois de la copropriété: 850 définitions, 2nd ed. by Yves Joli-Coeur, the Lexique français et anglais de procédure civile by the École du Barreau du Québec, and the Vocabulaire juridique, 14th ed. updated, published under the direction of Gérard Cornu.
