The Law Library has a limited number of "concurrent seats" for WestLaw
The Wi-Fi connection will automaticaly time-out every two hours to allow all library users a chance to log-in.
Library staff will monitor the usage closely and may introduce more aggressive access control to ensure every user has a fair chance, if necessary.

Library users have a choice of:
WestlawNext
Westlaw Classic

The Law Library does not have staffing to provide "one-on-one" training. Library users are encouraged to learn about Westlaw usage by visiting Thomson Reuters West's training materials at:
West e-Learning Center

Reminder on WestlawNext searches

WestlawNext may return results from databases that are not included in our contract. In those cases, the full contents are not accessibile to our users. Patrons can search our catalog to check if the law library has the content in print format.

Downloading/E-mailing from WestLawNext is subject to limitations
