Book Description
Online legal research presents significant challenges for today’s law students. The vast volume of information, constantly changing interfaces, and evolving technologies are all factors that conspire to create frustration, confusion, inefficiency, and sub-par research results. To effectively manage these challenges and become expert legal problem solvers, law students need a toolkit that integrates information literacy concepts with advanced knowledge of online tools, resources, and access points.

The textbook is written by legal research experts who draw on their extensive practical and classroom experience to provide readers with relevant and useful guidance for contemporary legal information seeking. It combines foundational instruction in the legal research process with forward-looking guidance based on best practices. The authors promote the idea that the lawyers best positioned to craft innovative, client-centered solutions in legal practice are those with a strong foundation of technological and information literacy.
