Black’s Law Dictionary (9th ed.) now on WestlawNext

When WestlawNext first debuted in 2010, some content had not yet been moved from what West is now calling “Westlaw Classic” into the new platform. One of the most missed resources was Black’s Law Dictionary, the most widely used legal dictionary in the United States. Now, just in time for the start of the 2012-13 academic year, Black’s Law Dictionary is finally available in WestlawNext!

Black’s is not searched when you do a search in the universal search box, so if you want to access Black’s, either use the universal search bar to locate the database (by typing “black’s law dictionary”) or click on “Secondary Sources” where you will find Black’s listed among “Tools & Resources” on the right side of the screen.
