Volokh Conspiracy Citations in the Westlaw JLR Database, Updated:
http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2009_01_18-2009_01_24.shtml#1232571321
Last year, around this time, I had[1] a post on the number of cites to
the Volokh Conspiracy in the Westlaw JLR database:
Volokh Conspiracy Citations in the Westlaw JLR Database:
By year: 2004, 14 citations. 2005, 22 citations. 2006, 69
citations. 2007, 43 citations. Note that the high number of
citations in 2006 resulted in part from the publication of papers
from conferences about law blogs, and that the number of citations
for 2007 will likely increase in the future because not all
journals have posted their final 2007 issues to the database.
(Methodology: JLR database queries for "volokh conspiracy" limited
to each year.)
Here's another year to add, based on running that same search today:
2008, 78 citations.
