2016 Graduate Database Access

We know our May 2016 graduates are busy with wrapping up their last law school finals and preparing for the bar exam. However, beginning that first position as an attorney is just around the corner, and before you go from Touro Law,  you need to know what the policies are for using your student access to the major legal research databases after you graduate. Here are the policies:

Bloomberg Law:

Graduating students have full access to their Bloomberg Law accounts for six months after their graduation date.  Your access is preserved automatically – no additional action is required.

 

Lexis Advance:

Lexis Advance offers six months of access to their database after graduation.  Your access is preserved automatically – no additional action is required.  For more information, please use the following link: https://www.lexisnexis.com/grad-access/.

 

Westlaw:

Westlaw offers a program called “Grad Elite.”  After registering with the program, students are granted limited access to Westlaw for six months after graduation.  To enroll in Grad Elite, log-in at www.westlaw.com and click the graduate extension banner, which is currently entitled "Grads - Want More Westlaw?"
