A New Look for ICLR Online

This weekend, the British legal research database ICLR Online upgraded to ICLR.4. As noted in ICLR's overview of changes, this version of the resource includes new features and functionality, including improved legislation searching and a new option to browse case law by topic. (An add-on feature called Case Genie, incorporating AI into natural language search processing, is not currently available in Duke's campus-wide subscription to this resource.)

Now in its tenth year of operation, ICLR Online is the digital research platform for Incorporated Council of Law Reporting for England and Wales, which has published law reports for England and Wales in print since 1865. ICLR Online contains the full text of case law from ICLR reporters in both HTML and PDF format, as well as a number of search options and browsing tool. The new upgrade to ICLR.4 adds integrated access to legislation through the UK's Legislation.gov.uk website.
