Electronic Legal Research (Westlaw and Lexis)

Information about legal research on Westlaw and Lexis is integrated into each research guide on this web site.  At Princeton, versions of Westlaw and Lexis intended for non-law school use ("Westlaw Campus" and "Lexis Academic") are available to the Princeton University community through the Articles & Databases link on the Library’s web page.

Westlaw Campus and Lexis Academic will serve most research needs of the Princeton community.  The Princeton University Library maintains a very limited number of passwords to Lexis and Westlaw’s commercial versions.  If you find that Westlaw Campus and Lexis Academic are not meeting your research needs, please contact the Law Librarian, who will help you with the research and/or provide access to the commercial Westlaw and Lexis (David Hollander, dholland@princeton.edu, (609) 258-5316).
