The course introduces the basics of legal literature research. After an overview of the information offered by the HSG library, the course will cover research strategies, the HSG repositories (Alexandria, EDIS, EDOK), important information databases on Swiss law (LEX Campus, legalis, Weblaw Campus, BGer) as well as some foreign databases (e.g. Beck-Online, Juris, Westlaw, Hein Online).
