The "new" and current name of the 1936 to 1967 Saskatchewan Bar Review (see Sask. Bar Rev.).

According to the publisher's website (University of Saskatchewan, College of Law) as of September 11, 2011:

"The Saskatchewan Law Review is published semi-annually by the College of Law under the authority of the University of Saskatchewan.... The Review provides a vehicle for the publication of researched articles and comments authored by practicing and academic members of the legal profession, and by law students and other persons interested in analyzing subject-matter of concern to lawyers.

"The Saskatchewan Law Review, as it is known today, first appeared as a journal in 1936 and was called the Saskatchewan Bar Review. It was published by the Law Society of Saskatchewan and edited by two members of the Saskatchewan Bar....

"In January of 1943, ... the Faculty of Law began editing the Review due to the absence of (the founding editors Stuart) Thom and (David) Tyerman, who were serving in the armed forces....

"In 1967 the publication changed its name from the Saskatchewan Bar Review to the Saskatchewan Law Review. The change in title reflected a growing feeling the journal had become more of an academic publication rather than one purely directed at the practicing profession."

The College of Law of the University of Saskatchewan is situated in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (Canada).
