Legal literature can be divided into two main categories - primary materials and secondary materials.
Primary materials are the written sources of the law e.g. Acts of the Oireachtas, Statutory Instruments, Law Reports etc
Secondary materials include all other types of legal literature which are not formal records e.g. books, journals, etc
