Nexis DaaS offers a variety of specialized discipline pages that provide curated content based on a student’s area of study or ad hoc research efforts. Students can set any one of these discipline-focused pages as their Nexis DaaS homepage, which means they can jumpstart their research efforts the second they open up Nexis.
