Abstract

Working with construction contracts can be a real challenge for information professionals due to the confusing way in which they are often named, the sheer number of editions and amendments, the differing terminology that's employed and many other factors. Here Debra O'Malley, Senior Information Services Officer at Pinsent Masons, threads her way through the labyrinth of construction law while providing an overview of the vast range of contracts available and where they can be found.
