[blindlaw] Westlaw or Lexis

Westlaw and Lexis are about the same, except for the Westlaw digest.  This
was extremely useful the past two summers when I worked for judges.  Have
your Westlaw rep show you how it works, and you'll be a goldmine of
information to your colleagues.


Onward!

Our office has a Westlaw contract, so we didn't get much choice,  When I
first started needing an adaptive tool for the computer, I was very
annoyed with it, because it was not working well with my screen
magnifier/reader (WinZoom) - then our rep told me about
www.text.westlaw.com, the text-only version - and it is working quite
well.

My preference is Westlaw as they have some pretty good support for JAWS.
I
have a contact name and number but have never used it for JAWS training
on
Westlaw (which is provided by West).

Fellow Listers, do you preferWestlaw or Lexis, and why? (I'm on the
verge of
beginning my legal career and would like your collective insight).
Thanks,
Ben
