Institutet för rättsinformatik

Law schools in SwedenStockholm University

Institutet för rättsinformatik (IRI) is the Swedish Law & Informatics Research Institute within the Faculty of Law at Stockholm University. The institute examines the relationship and interaction between law and IT. IRI not only focuses on legal issues of technology and the Internet (legal aspects of computing), but also on the development of technical solutions within the legal field (legal informatics). IRI was founded in 1968 as the Working Party for EDP and Law. The working party enabled specialised research into the fields of legal informatics and legal aspects of computing and was also very successful in supporting a network of lawyers within these fields. In 1981, the Working Party was rearranged into IRI at Stockholm University and as part of the networking the Swedish Association for IT and Law (ADBJ) was established. The Swedish Law & Informatics Research Institute also runs the team blog, Blawblaw, with posts in English and Swedish.

Swedish Museum of Natural History

The Swedish Museum of Natural History (Swedish: Naturhistoriska riksmuseet, literally, the National Museum of Natural History), in Stockholm, is one of two major museums of natural history in Sweden, the other one being located in Gothenburg.The museum was founded in 1819 by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, but goes back to the collections acquired mostly through donations by the academy since its foundation in 1739. These collections had first been made available to the public in 1786. The museum was separated from the Academy in 1965.One of the keepers of the collections of the academy during its earlier history was Anders Sparrman, a student of Carl Linnaeus and participant in the voyages of Captain James Cook. Another important name in the history of the museum is the zoologist, paleontologist and archaeologist Sven Nilsson, who brought the previously disorganised zoological collections of the museum into order during his time as keeper (1828–1831) before returning to Lund as professor.The present buildings for the museum in Frescati, Stockholm, was designed by the architect Axel Anderberg and completed in 1916, topped with a dome. As of 2014 it is the largest museum building in Sweden. The main campus of Stockholm University was later built next to the museum. The museum has Sweden's first purpose-built IMAX Dome cinema called Cosmonova, which opened in a dedicated annex of the museum in 1993. The cinema is also the largest planetarium in Sweden.The Index Herbariorum code assigned to this museum is S and it is used when citing housed specimens.
