How to search LexisNexis

How to search LexisNexis Academic News, Business, Legal Research

[UNT Libraries' Subscription]

This is a full text database.
Once you log on to LexisNexis, you will see a menu containing:
GENERAL
NEWS
LEGAL
BUSINESS
etc.
Search NEWS to find articles in newspapers and magazines.
Search BUSINESS to find business news, industry and market news, and company financial reports. Note that industry news and company news are also available via NEWS, described above.
Search LEGAL to find federal district, Supreme Court, or state cases. Study the LEGAL RESEARCH menu options carefully and choose the one you wish to search. Legal searches can be tricky and they take time to learn.
Print, download, or email your search results.

How to do a keyword search in any of the LexisNexis search screens:

EXAMPLE: When you type a search into the Keyword box, type it in as follows:

contract law

This will search only for the phrase, contract law.

You can also type it in as: contract w/1 law

The w/1 means "within one word".

This will search for contract law as well as other phrases such as law of contracts.
