Lexis-Nexis Academic Databases Have a New Look
Lexis-Nexis Academic databases have a new search interface which adds additional functionality and simplifies use. It is now easier to limit your search to subsets of sources. For example, you can search Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois newspapers in one search. Similarly, in Lexis-Nexis Academic Legal Research you can search the full text of court cases in all states, multiple states, or individual states. This was not possible with the previous search interface. New content has been added as well. Lexis-Nexis Academic Business now includes Company Dossier, which gives a snapshot of the company, corporate hierarchy, news stories, legal information, and financials.
