Good Morning,
    I'd like to ask for your assistance. One of our students is
clerking this summer for a small firm. She's been asked to compile a
comparative evaluation of the "online" sources --Westlaw, Lexis,
LexisONE and LOISlaw. The attorneys are considering subscribing to one
or several of these sources.
    I have some basic suggestions, but I know many of you have already
completed this exercise. Would you please let me know which factors you
considered, resources you consulted, and perhaps some of the reasons you
chose one (or more) of these resources over the others?
    Please reply to me personally at karweick@facstaff.wisc.edu
   Thank you for your responses. I really appreciate your input.
    Best,
    Betty Karweick
