The Law Library has recently acquired new resources within Westlaw, Tribal Materials! There are three ways you can access the Tribal Law material:
1. Add the Native American Law tab.
Choose the "Add a Tab" link from the upper right-hand corner within Westlaw.
Then select "Add Westlaw Tabs"
Under Topical, check the box next to "Native American Law"
and click on the button at the bottom, "Add to My Tab Set"
You should then see the Native American Law tab added across the top, at the end of your tabs.
2. Find the Tribal Materials in the Directory.
Click on the Directory link at the top of the page. Then select the link for the Tribal Materials.
3. Use WestlawNext to search for Tribal resources.
Simply begin typing what you're looking for in the search box, and WestlawNext might suggest something for you!
