New Westlaw interface

Westlaw has released their new interface which provides enhanced searchability  and added features such as Hong Kong  case digests (case summaries) and a case analysis service for HK cases which replaces their 'Keycite' system. There will be training session offered as part of e-resources week initially (http://eweek.lib.cuhk.edu.hk/feb16.html), and the training sessions for postgraduate students will be announced later.
 
In the meantime you will notice the old Westlaw links ('Westlaw International' and 'Hong Kong Current Awareness') alongside the new links called 'Westlaw HK' and 'Westlaw HK. Current Awareness' at the law library databases page. The old links will be removed once students and staff have had the opportunity to become more familiar with the new products.
