Notas do Editor
- The point of today’s presentation is to show you how to use all of the resources that the Law Library makes available for you to use in cite-checking, spading, etc. The primary take-away from this presentation (bolstered by the handouts), 3-prong search test: Search the Newark Law Library Search Rutgers University Libraries Place an ILL request for your item on the law library webpage
- And so, this is the material we’ll be covering today. Some of this may seem like review to some of you. Some of you may never have performed any of the tasks above. Nevertheless, these are the minimum research competencies that your EIC expects from you, so I’ll walk you through each of these tasks this morning. I’ll make these slides available to editorial. In short, the key to effective research is knowing what you’re looking for. We’ll be talking today about the myriad tools that we and RUL make available for you to retrieve items, WHEN you know what you’re looking for.
- If you bookmark our homepage, you’ll always have access to the catalog. In any event, our catalog, for the Newark Law Library, is your starting point for every single document or article pull you run.
- Here you can see how to search our catalog. This interface, combining search dialog boxes (where you type your search terms) and drop-down menus (where you tell the catalog what type of search you want to run) was designed to resemble student expectations of an electronic search engine. The best way to get comfortable with our catalog is to spend time poking around there. Most of the resources the catalog will bring up are not electronic, but we have managed to incorporate a number of e-resources into this database.
- Here is the result of a ‘keyword’ search for the phrase “Prosser & Keaton on Torts.” While most of you know this hornbook from last year (I hope!), the point of this slide is to let you know that if you’re not sure of the precise title or author, a keyword search is your best bet. Of course, you all will be working from citation lists, so you’ll have (at least an approximation) of the author & title you’re looking for. Which brings me to my first request: staff, PLEASE BRING THE ARTICLE YOU’RE SPADING TO THE LIBRARY! And editors, PLEASE PROVIDE COPIES OF THE ARTICLE TO STAFF! If you need librarian assistance, we’re going to need to see the article.
- And this slide shows yow how to read the item record proper. The item record will tell you how many copies of an item we have, where the item is located, and whether or not it has been checked out.
- New law reviews and periodicals are on reserve. Older issues are located on the second floor and are arranged alphabetically by title. HeinOnline tangent! So many sources in PDF format!!! HeinOnline is a great friend to Cite Checkers because it contains PDFs of law review articles and other sources (US Code, UN documents, CFR, and the Federal Register, etc.). For nearly all of the titles Hein has, it has the full run of the title. Just a reminder: Image formats, such as PDF, are exact copies of the original with page numbering and graphics. For cite-checking, PDF copies, just like microforms, are accepted as legitimate substitutes for the original.
- Follow the link from our home page to the Rutgers University Libraries (the catalog page also has a link to RUL under the link for “IRIS”). IRIS is the name of RUL’s catalog. “IRIS, the Integrated Rutgers Information System, is the online public access catalog for all of the Rutgers University libraries except for the Camden Law Library, the Rutgers Law Library - Newark, the Gottfredson Library of Criminal Justice, and the Schimmel Rare Book Library.”
- Sometimes the article indexes and databases will give you access to the full text of the article. If so, that’s great, and you’re done. Sometimes, however, you’ll just get an abstract, or a citation. In that event, you need to find the journal entry in IRIS, and for that, you need to know the journal name. (Remember that IRIS only searches what’s in Dana, Alexander, and all the “other” RU libraries. It doesn’t search for what’s in this building.)
- And here we have a basic search query on IRIS. Even though the colors and other surface-level design elements are different from ours, the construction of the catalog follows the same basic principles: drop-down menu and dialog box. Note that IRIS also has some different limits than we do, because IRIS contains more records for more items in more places than we do.
- Even though IRIS catalogs items that are housed in other RU libraries, you can use it to order items and pick them up here! (Exception: items housed in Dana must be retrieved from Dana. RUL will not send items here from Dana). How can you order items from IRIS? First, find the piece you’re looking for.
- Pull up the record proper (just as you would in our catalog), and then select the link for “Book Special Request.” That’s because you’re special! DON’T select “Book Delivery/Recall.” That’s for folks who are NOT special. And DON’T select “Article Delivery.” That’s for folks who need articles, but are not special. Actually, we’ll talk about this in greater detail later, but there’s only one occasion for you to use Article Delivery. If there’s one thing I want you to remember vis a vis IRIS, it’s this: YOU ARE SPECIAL. So be sure to use the “Book Special Request.”
- This is how special people order books. Again, note the drop down menu. Type your bar code (look on the back of your RUID) into the dialog box.
- Remember when I said there’s only one occasion for you to use the Article Deliver function? That is when: The article you need is NOT available electronically, and Is housed at an RUL library NOT on the Newark campus. If both of these conditions are met, then, and ONLY then should you use ‘Article Delivery.’ All other uses will result in you getting a very mean note from RUL. Not from us, but from RUL.

If you CANNOT obtain your article via article delivery any reason, request your article via ILL on the law library’s website.
- Whenever you request an item by ILL, use OUR ILL interface. When you need a book from another RU library, use “Book Special Request.” When you need an article that is NOT available in electronic format, and it is NOT on Newark Campus, use “Article Delivery/Request.” The link shown in this slide takes you to OUR ILL interface. This e-form is sometimes down, so be prepared to ask us for the paper ILL form that we keep behind the circulation and the reference desks.

This e-form is sometimes down, so be prepared to ask us for the paper ILL form that we keep behind the circulation and the reference desks.
- You need to know what “type” of item you’re looking for: book (monograph), book chapter, journal article, dissertation, and so on. Most electronic ILL requests are satisfied within 7-10 days, and many are resolved much more quickly.
- The more you tell us, the easier it is for us to find what you need. If there’s a ‘dead date’ after which you don’t need the item, let us know that, too. If there are special circumstances to your request, frex, we have the journal, but our collection does not date back far enough to contain the item you need, let us know that, as well.
- WorldCat is an excellent resource. It is an aggregate holding, derived from the electronic records in member libraries (which include almost all libraries in the world), and holds records for more than 1.4 billion items. If you can’t find it on WorldCat, then you’re not likely to find it.
- While there is a less-functional, open-access version of WorldCat available from anywhere you can access the Internet, following this trail to WorldCat from campus will get you to the full search capability of this powerful database.
- Once you follow the links from our website to WorldCat, you need to choose the WorldCat db in order to start searching.
- WorldCat allows you to create highly specific searches, which is helpful when you have more than a billion different item records to choose from. Select language, item type, define author name or phrase, title or title phrase, year of publication, etc., etc.
- The results show you individual item records (like you would find in our library), but you can also see where the item is held. We use WorldCat when we fulfill your ILL requests, and we think it’s a good idea that you check WorldCat in order to make sure that your ILL request is valid.
- WorldCat doesn’t provide access to the item itself, but it DOES provide a lot of detail about the item. Keep an eye out for any “Rutgers Univ” symbols on a WorldCat record. That tells you that the item is housed in RUL. If you see such a symbol, HOW do you order the item? Anyone? Bueller? (There is an indicator for the Newark Law Library that is DIFFERENT from the RUL symbol, and should appear near the top of the entry (if apposite). Don’t try to ILL an item if the entry bears any RUL or Newark Law indicator!!

- The Making of Modern Law, or MOML, is a historical database that contains approximately 10 million pages from more than 21,000 Anglo-American law treatises.
- These treatises are available in html or in .pdf, and you can use the search engine built into the database to find a particular item. You can also browse this collection by author and by work.
- This is a view of the e-table of contents, which links you to specific content areas in this treatise.
- You can use HeinOnline to find .pdfs of L.Rev. articles. Hein’s collection is much deeper than either Lexis or Westlaw, dating back to the first issue of each journal they index. Unlike West, which started out as a reporter/digest system, or Lexis, which started out as a db, Hein began as an indexer and repository of L.Revs., so they have expertise in this area.
- To search Hein, first click on the particular “library” you want to search. Hein adds new collections all the time, so it’s useful to check back into this page, and review it carefully.
- This is the “Field Search” function of Hein Online, which resembles the “Advanced Search” functions of our library catalogs.
- Two ways to browse: by citation, or by title.
- If you know the journal you’re looking for, just scroll down to its entry.
- And select that entry to access the contents by year or volume.
- You can toggle through the table of contents to find the article you’re looking for.
- Open up the article by selecting it from the left-hand window, and there you are!
- The Sup.Ct’s. website includes recent cases, current docket, argument transcripts, and a whole bunch more.
- If you search Google Scholar from a Rutgers computer lab, it will provide a link to a version of the article in question from a RUL subscription.
