USFSP -- Legal Research Exercise and Bibliographic Research Session wih Poynter Librarian Kaya Van Beynen

Students in Prof. McLauchlan's US Constitutional Law class need to complete a "Legal Research Exercise" to learn how to use Lexis/Nexis, Westlaw, JSTOR, the and other databases to access cases, statutes, law review and journal articles, and books via the USF libray.

We were fortunate that reference librarian extraordinaire from our Poynter Library, Kaya Van Beynen, came to our class to walk through the databases and how to access legal materials.  She even created a special resource for our class that is located within Canavs (our Learning Management System/LMS).

Thanks, Kaya!!!

(And I have since graded the Legal Research Exercises...and I know my students are ready to tackle this comparative legal research project with their colleagues at SEEU!)
