LMU Law Library: Alumni Research Links

WELCOME BACK ALUMNI!

LMU Law graduates may use the law library by showing a current Tennessee Bar card to the front desk receptionist or the Security Guard on duty. Law librarians are available to assist our graduates with legal research questions. Although the law librarians cannot conduct legal research for our graduates or their clients, we are available to assist in directing graduates to authoritative and cost-effective legal research sources (please see our contact information on the Librarians page). 

LEXIS PATRON ACCESS

The law library provides access to Lexis Patron Access from the computer terminal located on the third floor. Graduates can log in to the terminal from the desktop shortcut and access primary federal sources (statutes, regulations, and federal case law) and primary and secondary sources for Tennessee. In addition, Lexis provides access to Shepard’s citation service. The computer terminal is not connected to a printer, but documents can be emailed or saved to a flash drive. 

PRINT MATERIALS

Law library books circulate ONLY to current law students. If you need to borrow a book from our collection, please contact one of the librarians.
