Westlaw® Collections

Thomson West and Cassidy Cataloguing are pleased to announce a new partnership to bring MARC21 records for the leading computerized legal research service, Westlaw, to the law school library community.

Thomson West and Cassidy Cataloguing are working together to bring a full set of MARC21 records for over 18,000 Westlaw legal databases. All legal content of Westlaw will be covered by these collections.

The new Cassidy-Westlaw MARC21 records collections will be an expansion of the very popular WLX E-Treatise Collection, which was originally distributed by Cassidy Cataloguing Services in 2006.

These records will feature:

  • Best-of-Breed MARC21 Catalog Records for all Westlaw Titles
  • Option to Subscribe to the Monthly Update Service to keep titles and URLs corrent
  • Standard MARC21 Catalog Records that upload easily into your OPAC or ILS
  • Hotlinks that take you directly to all databases in Westlaw after entering individual ID
  • Authority Control run on all records and monthly Authority files available for purchase
  • The quality you have come to expect from Thomson West and Cassidy Cataloguing Services
