A comprehensive companion to Basic Legal Research or comparable text, Basic Legal Research Workbook provides a well-chosen range of exercises and assignments to familiarize students with fundamental research sources. Logically and intuitively organized, BLR Workbook’s coverage mirrors the research sources studied in first-year Legal Research courses, with an emphasis on digital resources while retaining the option to utilize print sources. Research exercises are presented at graduated levels of difficulty, from guided research to open research requiring more advanced research skills. The digital research exercises progressively instruct students on the latest interface features of commonly used databases. Print options cover multiple jurisdictions, reducing the demand on single library sources. This Sixth edition retains all of the types of problems, formatting, and coverage that instructors have found helpful in prior editions, but with updating to reflect the most current digital resources.

New to the Sixth Edition:
  • Digital Supplement—This will contain many of the exercises previously covered in Chapter 9 on Online Search Techniques. The digital format will allow for timely updates as platforms change as well as the addition of new materials in developing areas, such as AI, GenAI, or NextGen bar.
  • Digital answer sheets—The Workbook website includes answer sheets that can be downloaded for use as templates for completing the assignments digitally.
  • Updated Questions—Reflected in this edition are the many changes in Lexis, Westlaw, Bloomberg Law, and other databases and websites since the prior work.
Benefits for instructors and students:
  • Coverage that mirrors the research sources studied in first-year Legal Research courses, with an emphasis on digital resources while retaining the option to utilize print sources.
  • A logical and intuitive organization.
  • Research exercises cover the scope and organization of research sources (emphasizing online but also including some print), review the research process, and reinforce students’ skills.
  • Exercises are presented at graduated levels of difficulty, from guided research to open research requiring more advanced research skills.
  • Emphasis on digital sources while maintaining coverage of key print resources for professors who teach print research.
  • Digital research exercises with progressively more complex questions to instruct students on the latest interface features of commonly used databases.
  • Print assignments that can work in multiple jurisdictions, reducing the demand on single library sources.
  • Problem sets for all exercises.
  • An appealing and highly readable interior design.
