Focus On...
New! Indexes & Databases We are always adding new online resources to help you with your research needs. Below are some that we have acquired in the last year. For more online resources, see Online Materials.
  • LegalTrac: LegalTrac is the premier database for finding articles in legal periodicals published since the early 1980s. It does not include the text of articles, only citations, but it indexes more journals than Lexis or Westlaw.
  • Hein Online: Hein Online provides access to the text of older journal articles, many of which are not available on Lexis or Westlaw. It provides exact reproductions of originals, so you can access and cite articles that are not in the library.
  • Oxford English Dictionary: The OED is the most authoritative dictionary of the english language. Researchers rely on it to trace the etymology of words, and it is regularly cited as authority in cases and other legal documents.
The databases above are accessible from law school computers or through the law school dial-up system.
