Internet Research Guide
The Internet is a cheap alternative to the use of commercial databases
such as LEXIS and WESTLAW for finding primary legal materials such as U.S.
federal and state statutes, bills, cases, and regulations. Sometimes these
materials are available more quickly on the Internet than on LEXIS and
WESTLAW. The Internet is the place where you will find some primary
materials, for instance, legislation and case law from foreign countries,
treaties involving non-U.S. countries, e-mail addresses and other
directory information for legal professionals worldwide, and materials in
areas of law that have been traditionally underrepresented in print and
electronic legal publications, and non-legal materials that are important
to law work or interdisciplinary research.
