WestlawNext

Jason Eiseman

So, West is coming out with a new research system.  It will be rolled out next week (February 1).  When will we see it?  Not sure yet.  But, a few law librarians have seen it and are letting us know about it.  First, our own Jason Eiseman (along with former YLS librarian Tom Boone. Greg Lambert, and Jason Wilson) discuss WestlawNext.  Next, Betsy McKenzie gives a thoughtful analysis of WestlawNext and what it means for researching and what to do with those old skills.

We'll have more news about WestlawNext (and the new Lexis and Bloomberg) as we learn about them.
