I'm afraid that due to unforeseen circumstances today's drop in session will have to be canceled. My sincere apologises to those who were looking to come today.

With the new academic year it appears that the University has had some re-organisation on their website. The quickest way I have found to access Westlaw is as follows:

1) From your ‘MyPortal’ page, select the ‘Resources’ tab

2) Select ‘eResources database’, which is on the right hand side under ‘eResources’.

3) Under ‘Browse by subject’, click the link for ‘Law’

4) The link for ‘WestlawUK’ will be available on that page, in alphabetical order. Clicking on ‘WestlawUK’ will then take you to the Athens log-in page, for which you use your student computer log-in.

Hope this is helpful for you all :)
