The University of Pennsylvania Law Review (Bluebook abbreviation: U. Pa. L. Rev.) is a law review focusing on legal issues, published by an organization of second and third year J.D. students at the University of Pennsylvania Law School. It is the oldest law journal in the United States, having been published continuously since 1852. Currently, seven issues are published each year with the last issue traditionally featuring papers from symposia held by the review each year. It is one of the four law reviews responsible for publication of the Bluebook. It is one of five official scholarly journals at the University of Pennsylvania Law School and the fifth most cited law journal in the world.
In addition to the print edition, the University of Pennsylvania Law Review also publishes PENNumbra, an online supplement, which publishes debates, essays, and responses to articles that appeared in the print edition.
