Student Associates

LexisNexis has now been running their Student Associate support programme for over 5 years. There may be a student associate at your university or law school right now. We have associates at over 50 institutions and their job is to help students get the best out of the LexisNexis online research services.

To find out whether your university has a Student Associate, please look through the list of institutions below. From here you can go and read their full biography and find out more about what they are doing on campus to help you.

What is a LexisNexis Student Associate?
A Student Associate is a law student just like you. He or she has been fully trained to use the LexisNexis Butterworths online research service and also in how to pass that expertise on to others. Associates run weekly or bi-weekly clinics to provide fellow students with free support and assistance in using LexisNexis Butterworths and Nexis. Students can consult them on problems such as how to find a particular case or statute, how to find all the cases relevant to a specific problem, how best to search in order to maximise results, or even whether a particular journal or other source is available online.

What can an associate do for other students?
With an associate's help you can:
• Find what you are looking for quickly and easily.
• Save time - less time researching means more time for what's really important.
• Stay ahead of your classmates - have all the information you need to do your best.
• Reduce stress and be confident that you can deal with whatever an assessment or exam throws at you.
• Win the moot - be the one to find that brand new case which swings the result.
• Develop essential skills - research is an important part of any training contract, so why not hone your skills now with our help?
The LexisNexis Student Associates aim to help you find the answer for yourself - after a session with an associate, you will feel better equipped to carry out similar research for yourself in future.

The associates' role is to complement an institution's own library and information staff, as well as the LexisNexis academic trainers. We have received a great deal of support so far from librarians and faculty in establishing this programme and we will continue to work closely with them to ensure the programme is a success, both for ourselves and, more importantly, for our customers.

Feedback
We always welcome feedback about our student associates. If you have used the student associate service we would really like to hear about your experience. Our online feedback form takes only a couple of minutes to complete and your comments will help us to make sure you get the best out of our service.
