The Index to Foreign Legal Periodicals, or IFLP, is a tool to help you identify articles from foreign law journals and other periodicals. It is available through HeinOnline and uses the same search syntax as other HeinOnline databases.
It is important to note that this source is an index and not a full-text database. Your search results will consist primarily of bibliographic records. Where the full text of an article is available in HeinOnline, a link will be provided. However, even if the text is not available, you can use the information in the bibliographic record to locate the article in print, in another online database, on the internet, or through interlibrary loan. For resources available only in print, the IFLP will often be the only way for you to identify the article title, journal title, author name, and other information that you need to retrieve the material.
To see what an IFLP record looks like, please view the video in the box to the right of this text. Additional video tutorials for the IFLP are available on YouTube using the link below.
