The Fredric G. Levin College of Law is the law school of the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida. The law school underwent a major renovation between 2004 and 2005, creating new academic space and greatly expanding the law library, which is dedicated as the "Lawton Chiles Legal Information Center," named after Lawton Chiles, former Florida Governor and US Senator who graduated from the law school in 1955 and was employed by the law library during his time at the college. The Legal Information Center is one of the three largest law libraries in the southeast.
