1L Advanced Westlaw & Lexis Training

The Advanced Westlaw training classes for 1L students will be the week of January 24 - 28, 2011 and the Advanced Lexis training classes will be the week of January 31 - February 4, 2011. Sign up online at each vendor's website (Lexis registration opens next week). You will need to bring your passwords and laptops to class. Each class is approximately 50 minutes long. Attendance will be taken and shared with your Lawyering Process professor.

These classes build on the skills that you learned last semester and will help make you a more efficient, cost effective online researcher. The Westminster Law Library subscribes to both Westlaw & Lexis and provides free access to law students throughout their time at the University of Denver. Knowing how to use both of these databases effectively not only saves you time in doing legal research, but it can make you more marketable as a law clerk.

If you miss these training sessions, please stop by the vendor tables outside of the Library on the second floor of the SCOL to make an individual appointment with a student rep. After your training, the student rep will notify your LP professor of your attendance.
