Ease-of-Use Enhancements Added to LexisNexis
LexisNexis (http://www.lexisnexis.com) has announced that it has added several new ease-of-use features to its service, such as Get & Print, Star Pagination Print, Guided Search Forms, and Table of Contents enhancements.Get & Print allows legal professionals to pull an unlimited number of full-text cases and Shepard's reports in a fast, easy manner and then send them directly to their LexisNexis printer or to Adobe Acrobat Reader. According to the company, there's no need to enter each citation separately and extra print steps are eliminated. Star Pagination Print lets users print only the pinpoint pages they need from a long case or document. Researchers now have the option to print a specific page or range of pages from case law reporters, law review articles, or public laws. Guided Search Forms capture the precision of LexisNexis segment searching in the most commonly used sources on LexisNexis with 14 new fill-in-the-blank search templates. Each Guided Search Form integrates easy-to-use search fields and a pick list of commonly used sources to make research faster. The enhanced Table of Contents feature provides new expandable levels of the Table of Contents now available as well as a Table of Contents added to many new sources. An Explore Button offers quick links to bolded segment headers and a Floating Cite Assistant provides a pop-up box for pinpoint cite information. Larry Thompson, LexisNexis' senior vice president and chief marketing officer, said: "LexisNexis constantly strives to further improve the speed and efficiency of its customers' legal research. These new ease-of-use features enable customers to quickly drill down to the precise information they need without having to sort through material that is irrelevant to the matter at hand."
