Lexis & Westlaw Trainings in January

Post by Assoc Dir Law Lib »

Hi everyone,
I know you're all really busy, but please take a minute now to register for your introductory trainings for Lexis and Westlaw in January. Our reps, Celine and Stacy will be coming to 106 O'Brian on January 11th and 12th to provide you with an overview of their respective databases in preparation for your work in LAWR over the Bridge Term. The registration info is below. If you have any questions, please let me know or feel free to reach out to either of them directly.
Best of luck on your remaining exams and have a great Holiday!
Brian
