Free Online Seminar: Caselaw Research on Westlaw: The Power of One

For those of you who have Westlaw access, here's a free training opportunity from Westlaw. And if you don't have Westlaw access in your office or home, you can use the law library's free public Westlaw access!


Reserve your spot today for a free online seminar that will show you how to follow a case citation from beginning to end on Westlaw.

Some tips you'll learn include::
  • How to make the most of search tools to quickly find the case you're looking for
  • How to find related court cases that positively or negatively affect the case you're reviewing
  • How to use KeyCite Alert to retrieve new updates on materials citing your case and be automatically informed if your case is no longer good law
  • How to use the Topics and Key Numbers to sharpen your searches on a specific point of law
  • How ResultsPlus can provide you with extra analytical research power

Plus, since it's a live, interactive seminar, you'll have a chance to ask questions. Please feel free to forward this e-mail to colleagues that may be interested in the session.

Choose a time that's convenient for you.
