HeinOnline News

By | 12 October 2009

During the vacation, somethings have changed on HeinOnline.

 If you are used to printing from this database – the printer icon has moved to the middle of the page toolbar (it used to be far right hand corner).
 If you now do a text search in HeinOnline, the search term(s) you used will not just be highlighted on many more fields than before, including title, author, description, and citation.
The U.S. Statutes at Large library has a new search tool in that Library’s Citation Navigator for finding public laws quickly. Finding US StatutesIt is split into 2 parts to  accommodate the different formats used over the years to cite public laws. The upper section will find statutes using the naming method used by the 57th Congress to present(ex: 87-5 or Chapter 1, 57 Congress). The bottom section will find laws using the naming method used by the 1st-56th Congresses.  There is a short video explanation available if you need more help using this feature.
