Open and unimpeded access to the law and legal rules is critical to public engagement in democratic institutions. As members of the Stanford Law Community, we believe that no private institution should have the right to monopolize and control access to a system of citation necessary to practice the law in this country. The ability of all members of the public to obtain, read, and understand legal rules is essential to both the effective administration of justice and to the core principles of democracy: participation, transparency, and accountability. Everyone, regardless of wealth or status, should be able to cite the law. As such, we support the efforts of Carl Malamud, Professor Christopher Sprigman, and students at New York University School of Law to make the basic system of Bluebook citation available to the public.

We sign in support of Baby Blue,
