Tap into previous research across any department within your firm. Imagine the time you could save if someone in your firm had already done the research you’re about to do and you had access to it. Well, Folder Sharing on Westlaw® Canada enables you to tap into previous research across departments like never before – with instant access to shared documents from any computer. Researchers are able to save any document from their Westlaw Canada research. Quick access to relevant information helps you get more accomplished, efficiently. With research folders, you can tag and assign information as you go, so when your research is complete it’s already organized.
Organize and share your research more efficiently
You decide who can access your folders. Select the folder you want to share and choose Share from the Options menu. You can also click on the Share icon. Then simply use your Westlaw Canada contacts list to add internal team members.
Folder owners have full administrative control over their shared folders, including defining who has read-only access to documents, and who can contribute to the collection with their documents.
A New icon alerts the entire team to the most recently added research. The Added By column lets the team know which team member shared the document or snippet. KeyCite® flags always indicate the current state of the law – even if the document was added to the folder before a change in status.
