UCI Law Research Guides: Summer Employment Resources: Summer Database Access

Westlaw, Lexis, and Bloomberg

No matter who you're working for, check to see if they want you to use your UCI login or one of their logins. For 2024, summer access policies are:

Lexis Advance: unrestricted use
Bloomberg Law: unrestricted use
Westlaw: non-commercial use only. That is, only on work done for a non-profit organization, for summer RA assignments, or for any state or federal government employer (including judges, prosecutors, public defenders, etc.).

Other Subscription Databases

The Law Library subscribes to dozens of other databases that you may find useful during the summer. In order to access them from off campus, you will need to connect to the Law School's VPN.
