Justin Iverson is a Research Librarian and Assistant Professor at the Wiener-Rogers Law Library at the William S. Boyd School of Law. He provides research assistance to law faculty, instructs students on research methods, and assists library patrons with legal reference services.

Professor Iverson has taught Legal Education & Assistance in Prisons (LEAP) and Advanced Legal Research: Health Law.

These guides remain available in the prison library as a permanent resource to assist with researching legal issues.

Within the law school community, Professor Iverson serves as a board member for the Program on Race, Gender, & Policing in addition to his work with other committees.  Outside of the law school, he is Co-Chair of the Nevada Library Association’s Government Relations Committee.
