Research Refresher Slides Now Available

If you missed any of the seven "Research Refresher" classes which the Law Library offered earlier this month, you can still get up to speed on legal research topics before your summer job begins. The presentation slides from each refresher have been posted to http://www.law.duke.edu/lib/workshops/ .

The classes included a review of print and electronic research strategies for the following topics:
  • Cases & court documents
  • Regulations & administrative law materials
  • Statutes & legislative history
  • Getting background and keeping current
  • Free & low-cost legal research
  • Putting it all together (taking an assignment from start to finish)
  • Business law boot camp
Presentations are available in PPT and PDF formats.
