New Results Page Coming Soon

We’re making things simpler to use and even better. Coming in December (subject to successful release testing) – a new results page.

o    Find the result you’re looking for – when running a search over all our content the results will now appear with tabbed results by content type making it easier for you to find the result you’re looking for.

o    Need to gather all your relevant results in one place? The new “Add to my documents” link allows you to easily gather all your key documents in one place.

o    Want to be able to search widely and easily narrow down to the result you’re looking for - all available “Narrow by…” filters will be open and display the top 5 categories in that search.

o    Is this what I’m looking for? Scroll through excerpts showing your result hits in the document to help you decide if you want to open the full document.

o    Option to switch between new results and classic results (the old results page) while you get used to the new interface.

This December will see the Beta release and will be optional for users. You can try out the new results by clicking the banner at the top of the results page or continue using the classic (current) version.

 

 

Read your favourite journals on the move

 

We’ve been adding PDFs for your favourite journals on LexisLibrary. This allows you to have the experience of reading your journals in more than just black and white.

Download the articles and read them on your favourite mobile devices at your leisure.

Easy to read journal articles for 22 LexisNexis titles including the highly popular Tax Journal, Taxation Magazine, NLJ and Criminal Law and Justice Weekly.

We’ve also included pagination and logos on LexisLibrary with full text of articles from 2010 onwards, making it easier to reference articles and see where you are.

All this and an index covering over 600 journals and professional blogs make it easier for you to find the journal content you need.
