What's New in LexisNexis Academic for 2009/2010?
LexisNexis is releasing a significant update to the LexisNexis Academic interface for the 2009-2010 school year. There will be no change in content and only minor changes to most of the existing forms.
The most dramatic changes are in the color scheme, the navigation menu, and the Easy Search form. There are also a small number of additional search forms such as a "Landmark Cases" form under the "Legal" menu.
The most significant changes are highlighted below.
