New York, New York, July 13, 2006
Now with ten additional years of coverage,
Index to Legal Periodicals
Retrospective: 1908-1981 allows users to search law
periodicals as far back as 1908, H.W. Wilson today announced. Based
on the classic print reference Index to Legal Periodicals & Books,
this unique WilsonWeb database makes more than 70 years of
periodicals research available for educators, students, law
professionals and others, with indexing of publications 1908 through
1981.
Index to Legal Periodicals Retrospective:
1908-1981 covers over 850 noted publications from the U.S.,
Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.
Cover-to-cover indexing includes book reviews and case citations. In
addition to periodicals, annual surveys of the laws of a
jurisdiction, annual surveys of the federal courts, yearbooks, and
annual reviews of the work in a given field are also indexed.
Subject terms (which may have changed over the
years) and personal and corporate names have been standardized,
ensuring retrieval of all records on a given subject. Original
subject headings have been retained as "Historical Subjects,"
preserving the full value of the data as a historical source, and
providing insight into the way issues of the day were framed. Both
current and historical headings are searchable. Researchers can use
this database to search by court case (over 125,000 cases), as well
as by title, author, journal, keyword, document type, and more.
Seamless links to full-text articles on a
subscriber's other OpenURL compliant databases (including HeinOnline),
plus library holdings messages and document-delivery links make
finding the actual articles easy. Index to Legal Periodicals
Retrospective can also be searched simultaneously with
Index to Legal Periodicals Full
Text, for a century of law research at a keystroke.
Free 30-day trials are available to libraries. For
