Overview

LexisNexis™ at www.nexis.com is the new web-based interface to the LexisNexis™ services. It features research tools such as:
  • Search forms that offer fill-in-the-blank searching.
  • Company Dossier, with subscription-dependent company reporting information.
  • Personal News, Shared News, and Real-Time News, which provide tailored research conveniences.
  • Smart Tools to let you include links from your intranet to the nexis.com service.
  • Instant and seamless activation to get you started as quickly as possible.

And there are many other features that make finding just the right information easier than ever. These include:

  • Quick search, which lets you find recent, relevant results about a subject, company, person, or industry by entering a few words or a phrase.
  • Subject Directory, which offers point-and-click access to recent news, company, legislative, and Web sources.
  • Power search, designed for sophisticated searchers; supports full LexisNexis™ search language, including Boolean logic and connectors.
  • LexisNexis™ SmartIndexing Technology™, which allows for easy searching of documents by focusing on selected segments, rather than the full text.
  • A Web sources directory, which searches web sites that have been mentioned in news sources.

This training module focuses on the Quick search, Power search, Subject Directory, and Search Form tools. For a hands-on look at these tools, try the Show Me movie.
