How to Search

Law Library Search Box

The Library Search Box

The Library Search box is a great place to get started in research.  From here, you can find books (print and electronic,) journal articles, DVDs, web resources.  Just type in a few keywords.  Or, if you have a phrase (e.g. "clear and convincing") type it in quotes.

Search Results

A search for the phrase "clear and convincing" brought back over 2300 results.  This search presumes an "and" between search terms so, adding MORE words will bring back FEWER results.
