Abstract

This annotated pathfinder is designed to serve as a guide for those who wish to learn about the legal and social situation of Muslim women in the region of the Middle East, but who do not have a great amount of advanced knowledge concerning the topic. It is meant to serve as an organized starting point from which to begin further research, and to provide a context for the current status of Muslim women's rights in the Middle East. A wide variety of types of materials are included, from books to reports to treaties.

Reference/Research Librarian, University of Houston Law Center, O'Quinn Law Library. This bibliography began as an assignment for my International Legal Research class at the University at Buffalo Law School, taught by International Law Librarian Nina Cascio. I would like to thank her, along with the other law librarians at the Charles B. Sears Law Library, for their support, encouragement, and friendship both during and after my time as a dual-degree J.D./M.L.S. student at the University at Buffalo. I would also like to extend my thanks to my director Spencer L. Simons, and the rest of my co-workers at the O'Quinn Law Library. They welcomed me from the beginning, and have taught me a great deal about the profession. A special thanks to my associate director Mon Yin Lung for her editorial comments and suggestions for this pathfinder.
