Keep your profiles up-to-date on Westlaw and LexisNexi

At least once-a-year law students should update their profiles on LexisNexis and Westlaw.  Check your e-mail address and your graduation date.   The faculty may use the e-mail function in TWEN or Lexis Web Course to send e-mail to their students, but if your address is not correct you will not receive the e-mail.  Your access to Westlaw and Lexis depends on your graduation date.  If you extend your course work past your predicted graduation date, you need to notify Lexis and Westlaw of your new graduation date.

Here is how you can update your profile on Westlaw and Lexis.

For Westlaw: Log into Westlaw http://lawschool.westlaw.com/  and on the left side of the page next to your name is the UPDATE link.  Click on that link to update your profile.

For LexisNexis: Log into LexisNexis http://www.lexisnexis.com/lawschool/ and click on the ACCOUNT HELP tab.  At the next screen, click on MANAGE MY ACCOUNT.
