"Nothing. I use Westlaw for free at my local library, and Lexis for free at the courthouse law library. And Google Scholar for quick stuff at home."

I'm a public librarian, I can't imagine a public library giving away Westlaw for free. It is exorbitantly expensive.

yes but it's absolute ass. can't even boolean right.

I had their app for a while, as lexis doesn't (didn't?) have a mobile app and it's absolutely terrible. ok in a pinch if you know the exact case or statute you're looking for and just need to read it, but otherwise....

I literally brought a ScanSnap ix500 in my backpack to a TTT law library and scanned a $10,000 treatise page by page. It was loose leaf, so it was really easy.

is this scare tactics or are there known cases? seems like it'd be easier to report you and TT to the bar for downloading entire treatises at once and saving them offline.

how could they tell a law student is doing research for commercial purposes?

for a solo, basic wl/lexis (no add-ons, no secondary sources) is less than $100 a month.

so ~10-20 billable minutes depending on your hourly rate.

reddit is SPS at relationships or more generally like, how to live. but it's pretty good at how to save money, or collect government benefits
