Sharing Online Search Strategies Using the History Link
(February 11, 2005)

Here is an easy way to share online research strategies with colleagues so that you don’t duplicate work. 

• Log on to the LexisNexis services at www.lexis.com, and click on the History link in the upper right corner.

• Unless you’ve done all of your research today, you’ll need to click on the Archived Activity tab.

• Just to the right of the tab there’s a link called Filter. Click on this link, and choose the appropriate client/matter number from the list.

• Click Apply.

The filter function allows you to view specific groups of searches by client/matter number or by date. Once you’re pleased with your filtered results click on the View Printable History link. Now you can use your browser function (File; Send Page by Email) to send your search strategies to the other librarians who need to see them.
