Rising 2Ls and 3Ls will have continued access to all LSU Law databases including Lexis, Westlaw, and Bloomberg Law.
Using Lexis this summer:
You may use Lexis without restrictions,even for work related research. Your firm may prefer you to use their Lexis ID for billing purposes.
Using Westlaw this summer:
You may use Westlaw for non-commercial purposes (i.e. if you aren't being paid for the research you are conducting). If you are working for a firm, you must use their Westlaw access. Your cap of 180 hours of use a month remains in effect. Remember to log out if you are not actively using Westlaw to search.
Using Bloomberg Law this summer:
You may use Bloomberg Law without restrictions. Your firm may prefer you to use their Bloomberg ID for billing purposes.
Other Law School databases:
You may use these without restriction. If you access the databases from off-campus, you will need to use the links found in the library's database list and log-in using your myLSU account information.
