Free Enhancements Coming to Lexis.com at the Cleveland Law Library on November 10th

By Cleveland Law Library

On November 10, 2010, Lexis.com enhancements will arrive at the Cleveland Law Library. I took a look at the new interface yesterday, and the changes are easy to see, use and understand. All of the basic features and search functions are still the same. Some of the new changes include less tabs at the top, more drop down arrow menus, and reorganization of the quick search boxes on the screen to the right hand side. The best feature that I liked is that more of our Law Library's content will be visible when patrons choose a tab, such as the Ohio or Legal tabs. If you use Lexis often, you will know that each category under a tab (e.g., Cases, Statutes...) currently provides a selected list of databases, with a link to "View More." Because more databases will be listed, there will be less "View more" links, which themselves are being moved to the top of the list, instead of the bottom. These changes will make it easier to find what you are looking for. If members need help using the new interface next month, just ask our crack staff at the front desk.
