Attn 1Ls: Legal research and citation refreshers

Voyager, CED, Abridgment, Halsbury’s—sound vaguely familiar but could be Dr. Who characters as easily as Canadian legal research tools?

Then try to make it to one of our 30-minute legal research refreshers, presented by Michael Lines of the law library. Citations will also be covered.

All refresher sessions will be in the law library computer lab. Here’s the schedule:

Week 1 (emphasis research materials)
Tues. Jan 20, 12:00 and 12:30
Thurs. Jan 22, 12:00 and 12:30

Week 2 (emphasis citations)

Tues. Jan 27, 12:00 and 12:30
Thurs. Jan 29, 12:00 and 12:30

No preregistration required.

Also keep in mind the library’s legal research and writing guide: https://libguides.uvic.ca/lrw. There you can find a research strategy overview, links to sample research plans and journals, and primary and secondary legal research starting points.
