AILR circulates in-depth articles by legal scholars, attorneys and other expert observers. In addition, AILR provides comments and notes written by student members and editors on a variety of Indian law-related topics.

Every spring AILR hosts one of the nation’s largest symposia on Native American law, in partnership with the University of Oklahoma’s Native American Studies Department and the Native American Law Students Association.

It also hosts an annual American Indian Law Writing Competition for law students that are enrolled in any American Bar Association accredited law school in the United States and Canada.[2] The article winning first place is published in the review and the top three entries receive cash prizes.

Founded in 1973 by an enterprising group of students, AILR consistently boasts a diverse membership dedicated to the study of Native American law. Approximately 50 OU Law students participate in AILR each academic year.
