We're using HeinOnline and although it may be missing some content, it doesn't seem to be missed here. It was infinitely better to implement and seems to be getting good use at a good price.

Subject: [Eril-l] alternative to WestLaw or Lexis?


Hi -- this is a long shot since legal materials tend to be rather unique, but I thought I'd try.



Is there an alternative to WestLaw or Lexis that really focuses on undergraduates who are probably not going to law school for the most part?



The reason I ask is that I am really tired of dealing with arrogance at WestLaw. We briefly had access to Lexis a few years ago and encountered the same arrogance. They are really very focused on law schools and law firms and not particularly interested in undergraduate education. That's my feeling anyway.



I'm just trying to see what is out there -- with maybe somewhat comparable content.



Thanks!
