Concealed carry research

Would you like to know more about concealed carry, given recent Wisconsin legislation?

Wisconsin’s Attorney General has posted a “Questions and Answers” document, which provides a link to 2011 Wisconsin Act 35.

The Legislative Reference Bureau has issued “Concealed carry,” part of the Tap the Power series that provides short bibliographies (listing books, articles, and web sites) on hot legislative topics.

Besides clicking the links within the document for online resources, search HALCat to see if the books are available, and use the Journal Holdings List to see if the articles in journals or magazines are available.

At the bottom of the document are suggestions for finding additional materials. The databases mentioned are available to all UWW students, along with many other potentially relevant databases such as Political Science Complete.

Locally, Whitewater’s Common Council has had ordinance language on its agenda for recent meetings (see especially agenda and minutes of the Sept. 6. meeting).

UW’Whitewater’s Chancellor Richard Telfer published an announcement of the campus Concealed Carry Policy on Monday, October 10th.

Please ask a librarian for assistance with finding materials.
