Kia ora koutou,
Westlaw NZ is being replaced by a new platform which we are currently referring to as new WestlawNZ.
WestlawNZ is one of our giant NZ legal platforms and is used extensively by Law and Criminal Justice students.
The old platform will be switched off at Easter 2022.
From Monday 22nd November John, the MDL’s and I will start to change all the links across the library catalogue, Subject Guides and other library webpages to the new platform. We will be teaching this platform as part of our legal research teaching from Semester 1, 2022.
The key change is that students will now need to login to WestlawNZ and then have the option to personalize the platform for their own use. This change also applies for all our other TR platforms (Westlaw International, WestlawNext Canada and Westlaw UK).
I am going to run a training session for the School of Law which I’d like to open to any interested Library staff. However because we are in Level 2 and due to space constraints in the room I’d like to ask any Library staff to attend via Zoom. The session will be on Thursday 25th November at 1pm. If you’d like to attend please let me know and I can send you the Zoom link.
I’ll send out another update on Monday.
Theresa
