Highlight on HeinOnline

In last week's blog post we discussed the importance of checking your resources. We've seen it many times that people come into the law library telling us they've looked everywhere for an article or resource only to find out they had access to the journal or resource all along! So today, we're highlighting HeinOnline as a great resource for your research. HeinOnline is available inside the law library for everyone and state employees have speciality access. Contact the law library for more information.
This month, HeinOnline reached an amazing milestone: they now provide access to over 2000 journals in their Law Journal Library! Here are some more interesting facts about HeinOnline's resources:

  • Has more than 27 million pages and over 1.4 million artciles
  • Every journal in HeinOnline is available back to its inception
  • 92.5% of the journal titles are available through the most current issue
  • 7.5% of the journals have an embargo of one volume or greater
  • HeinOnline's law journal coverage extends well beyond the United States; currently, nearly 700 international journals published in more than 40 countries are included in the database
