    In today's world, with the internet providing us with easy access to information, it's not always easy to find reliable and relevant information for our research. That's where IFLP comes in - a valuable tool for quickly retrieving the resources you need. The index provides results that match your keyword search in the title, abstract, or author, ensuring that you find articles relevant to your research, rather than articles that merely mention your search term one or two times. With fewer yet higher quality results yielded from an index, you can spend less time searching, and more time learning.

    IFLP is a must-have resource for law and academic librarians, law firms, corporations, and more. It offers fully-searchable indexing from 1985 forward, a multilingual index with 26 languages covered, and full-text linking to more than 80,000 articles and book reviews. You also get access to the digitized version of the entire print Index dating back to 1960, ISSN and ISBN linking to your local library catalog or WorldCat, and OpenURL linking to resources at your library.

    In this webinar, you will get an in-depth understanding of the product, its features, and how it can help you in your research. You will also get an opportunity to ask questions and interact with the editorial staff of IFLP. Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn more about this valuable resource. 

    Don't subscribe? No problem! Free trials to IFLP will be made available to any interested attendees following the session. 

    TARGET AUDIENCE:

    Law firm librarians, academic librarians, foreign & comparative law professors, law students, legal researchers 

    TAKEAWAYS:

    1. Attendees will learn how to use the new IFLP Alerts feature to create customized email alerts pertaining to indexed content of interest, such as Topics, Regions, Country Subjects, Journals, and Languages, and how it can save time and effort in finding relevant and reliable information for your research.
    2. Attendees will understand the importance of using an index for legal and academic research, and how it can help you find articles that are more relevant to your research, rather than articles that may simply mention their search term one or two times. 
    3. During this session, the editors will show attendees how to navigate the index for practical use so you can take your research to the next level.
