ALMs Law Journal Press Online Delivers Next Generation Research Services for Lawyers and Law Librarians
Monday 15. November 2010 - ALM's Law Journal Press, a leading publisher of books for legal professionals, today announced the launch of Law Journal Press Online. The new service will offer a broad digital catalog of legal publications, versatile online research tools, expanded content and updated pricing models. Law Journal Press Onlines web-based and mobile services represent a significant shift in the way lawyers and law librarians access substantive legal content. Detailed information is available at www.lawjournalpress.com.
“Law Journal Press Online will radically alter the way in which our subscribers conduct research and the way in which law librarians manage our content,” according to Sara Diamond, group vice president, Substantive Law. “We researched the way lawyers and librarians find, use and annotate their information and developed functionality which feels familiar and intuitive. Combine this with our content and a powerful search engine, and you have a formidable resource.”
Law Journal Press Online was developed with LearningMate, one of the worlds leaders in e-learning technologies for publishers. The new service offers enhanced and fully searchable, digital editions of the Law Journal Press publications as well as access to the ALM Networks editorial content.
The new Law Journal Press Online offers lawyers and law librarians:
Instant access via the web and mobile to the complete text of its print editions, with updates added automatically.
All-inclusive annual pricing, which simplifies budgeting and planning for law firms and libraries – all updates are included, with no additional charges.
Powerful research functionality, including the ability to highlight, bookmark, annotate, organize, and print or export research.
Fully searchable text and index, featuring integrated access to related cases and statutes.
William Pollak, CEO of ALM, commented, “Law Journal Press Online is a significant corporate initiative for ALM, designed to revolutionize the way in which lawyers and law librarians are able to access substantive legal content. We plan to grow and expand this service and our substantive law business in the years to come.”
Law Journal Press Online is currently offering a selection of titles, with 44 available by year-end. More than 130 Law Journal Press titles along with regional books, newsletters and additional research tools are scheduled for launch in the next twelve months.
