The Law Society of Scotland has launched a Web site in a move to make the legal profession more accessible to the public. The site contains a database of all Scottish solicitors, firms and certain public sector organisations. There are also links to sites of University faculties and legal organisations. Current information and articles on the history of Scottish law can also be found on the site. Society president John Elliot said: "Everyone has an interest in the law in some way and we want to show that lawyers are approachable." The address of the site is http:// www.lawscot.org.uk.
