How To Search For Journals And Law Reviews

Log in and navigate to the “law school” tab. Scroll down to the “search for a database” menu on the left-hand side of the screen and type “jlr.”  Click “go.”

You are now in the Journals and Law Reviews database. Type in your search terms using either the "natural language" or "terms and connectors option," then click “search Westlaw.”

Choose your results from the list provided.

There are innumerable law review and journal articles published in the United States.  Running a search through the text of all of these articles may produce too many results, no matter how well you tailor your search. Consequently, you may want to limit the scope of your search to searching the titles of articles. You can do this on the search page by clicking the “field” drop-down menu and selecting “title."
