Bloomberg/BNA at Savannah Law School

Bloomberg Law
Bloomberg Law is a legal research system integrating legal content (cases, statutes, regulations, and a citator service), along with company and market information and news. In addition to the full range of BNA content, Bloomberg Law also offers access to Federal and State court dockets and filings, and a host of transactional resources.The American Association of Law Libraries Award recognizes Bloomberg Law’s Innovation in Providing Access to Legal Information and awarded it the AALL 2012 New Product of the Year.

With access to Bloomberg Law, you can search across primary law databases, such as court opinions and statutes, learn about new areas of law using powerful secondary sources, locate actual litigation and transactional documents to help with drafting, and perform research to prepare for interviews using company/people profiles and news. Bloomberg recently acquired BNA and integrated the BNA content into the Bloomberg Law platform; this includes publications like the Criminal Law Reporter, the Family Law Reporter and the Environmental Law Reporter.  Bloomberg Law also provides federal court dockets available through PACER, without the PACER fees!  Finally, Bloomberg offers students the ability to use the Bloomberg Law content  for employment and internships.
