If you are working for an attorney or firm this summer, consider signing up for free access to the L.O.I.S. Primary Law Library offered by Loislaw. Loislaw is part of Wolters Kluwer Law and Business, the second largest provider of content to the legal market with divisions including Aspen Publishers (publishers of the Examples and Explanations series) and CCH. Unlike LexisNexis and Westlaw, the L.O.I.S. Primary Law Library is free to law school students who work for attorneys and firms while still in law school.
The L.O.I.S. Primary Law Library offers full-text access to federal and state cases, statutes, administrative regulations, and court rules. Cases and statutes may be retrieved by citation and cases by party names. There is keyword and field searching of documents. Free 24/7 technical support is provided.
Contact a Reference Librarian to obtain the School of Law’s access code when signing up for the L.O.I.S. Primary Law Library.
