I have questions about using terms and connectors on Westlaw and Lexis. Where can Georgetown Law students get help?
Answer
Always feel free to reach out to the Law Library Reference Desk with questions about using the legal databases. You can also check the Terms and Connectors (Boolean) Searching tutorial or the Terms & Connectors Searching section of the Case Law Research Guide. In the Advanced Search options within Westlaw and Lexis, on the right side of the screen, there should be quick tips on using connectors plus links to more detailed FAQs or guides. Westlaw and Lexis also offer quick reference guides, in PDF, but check for the most current version available. Each service also provides live help via chat and telephone. Log into Westlaw or Lexis with your student account and look for Contact Us or Contact Customer Support.
