Wow. I was afraid of this, and I'm so glad I didn't start if

immediately.

We do have King Law School at UCD, plus will check out the Lexis site

to see if any training is offerred. I know an attorney as well.

One quick question--When searching Lexis, is it possible to copy

items that come up for our personal research use? I realize I can't

post their stuff on the web without thier permission, but can I copy

it into my computer for later personal reference?

Thanks Kayleigh, for your response. Nice to see you.

Best,

My recollection is that you can download things to the printer and

then print them when you are offline. I would usually get the

references and go to the cites in the law library. But I wasn't

looking for news, like you are.
