Internet Guide to International Fisheries Law
Ocean Law Research Project (1999-ongoing)

The Internet Guide to International Fisheries Law was first developed in 1999 and has been continually developed since. It is now widely recognized as one of the leading resources in the field, with an average monthly readership of over 10,000 users. In 2008 it will go through a major redevelopment as part of the IFLPP project (below), taking the website to over 6000 documents/pages and thereby making IGIFL one of the largest free online collections of international legal information on any subject.
