Unlimited Access to Lexis Advance This Summer!

We are happy to announce that your law school Lexis Advance ID will remain active during the summer and that you will have unlimited access to the content available to you in law school to be used for your academic, as well as any summer associate or internship/clerkship purposes*. Whether working in a firm, government agency, any of the courts, or brushing up on your cost effective research skills, you will have unlimited access to Lexis Advance.
We understand that as a law student, your legal education does not stop during the summer. In fact, some of your most valuable and practical legal education occurs during your participation in summer associate and internship or clerkship programs. In recognition of this, for the months of June, July and August of this year, we are expanding the permissible uses of your law school Lexis Advance ID to include use by you in these programs, including all research or other work you perform for the firm, agency, or court. You simply need to be registered for Lexis Advance.
Registering for Summer Access

• If you're already a registered Lexis Advance user, you don't need to do anything else to get Summer Access. Your current ID is all you need.
• If you aren't a registered Lexis Advance user yet (or aren't sure), contact Alyce Perry at alyce.perry@lexisnexis.com.

Support throughout the Summer
Your school's LexisNexis® Account Executive, Alyce Perry, alyce.perry@lexisnexis.com, is available to you during the summer for training and support. Feel free to contact him or her early to let them know your summer research goals.
You also have access to 24/7 customer support for help with Lexis Advance, summer access or research questions at 1-800-45-LEXIS (53947).
