Access to Variety and The Hollywood Reporter
Posted by admin on Sep 25, 2007
The Dean’s Leadership Forum Speaker, Kyle Bowser (’91), suggested that
students interested in entertainment law keep up with developments in
Hollywood through the publications Variety and The Hollywood Reporter.
Although the library does not subscribe to either of these publications
in print, Widener law students and faculty have access to these
publications through the subscription databases Westlaw and Lexis.
Variety is available in Westlaw as abstracts only (Westlaw database=
VARIETY). Lexis has the full text of the most recent two weeks
(Lexis database= DLYVTY).
The Hollywood Reporter is available in Westlaw as selected full-text
(Westlaw databases= HOLLYWDR). Lexis has the most recent 2 weeks
available (Lexis database= THR).
Please contact a reference librarian if you have trouble accessing
these titles or would like help setting up email alerts from these
publications.
Delaware Campus: New Spaces in the Library!
Posted by admin on Sep 13, 2007
We hope everyone has noticed the recent changes to the Delaware Campus Law Library.
The PC Lab has moved across
Main Street and is now located on the 1st floor of the library. A new
entrance to the library has been added on the 1st floor to provide
easier access to this space. The new copiers located in the PC Lab are
configured to handle print jobs from the PC Lab workstations.
Additional Study Rooms added.
The reconfiguration of the 1st floor has allowed the edition of a new
study room on the first floor, just past the computer workstations.
Also a new study room has been added to the 3rd floor of the library
(it was formerly a Law Review Workroom.)
New Classroom added to the 3rd floor.
A new conference / classroom has been added to the third floor of the
library. This room will be named the Marshall- Dennehey Room (you may
see it referred to as the ìMD Roomî.)
Due to the meetings and classes being scheduled in the Marshall-
Dennehey Room on the 3rd floor, you may occasionally notice more noise
than previous semesters on this former ìquiet floorî. You will still
find many quiet places to study in the library including the back areas
of the 1st and 2nd floors- we apologize if this causes any
inconvenience.
