LawNet is
Singapore’s leading
legal research
website that has
been the backbone of
the legal community
for the past decade.
Subscribed to by
more than 90% of
Singapore lawyers,
LawNet
provides a complete
suite of research
and legal
transactional
solutions for legal
professionals 24/7.
Subscribers can
conduct research on
primary (case-law
such as the
Singapore Law
Reports, unreported
judgments and
legislation) and
secondary (legal
news, reference
material, textbooks
and journals)
content.
LawNet also
provides access to
the material of
other common law
jurisdictions such
as English case law
(the Weekly Law
Reports and the Law
Reports), Malaysian
case law (Malayan
Law Journal), Indian
case law (Supreme
Court Cases), and
the convenience of
integrated access to
primary and
secondary legal
material from the
Australasian Legal
Information
Institute (AustLII).
The
LawNet Management
Committee sets
the global
objectives and
policy guidelines
for the use of
LawNet and
legal information
technologies within
the Singapore legal
sector. Of note, the
new
LawNet portal
was launched in July
2007 to acclaim. In
addition to an
enhanced interface
and the ability for
a user to customise
the look and feel,
the implementation
of research tools
such as search
trail, bookmarks and
email alerts has
improved the legal
research experience.
Since then,
LawNet has
continually enhanced
its services and
introduced new
content while
maintaining its
affordable and
highly competitive
subscription rates,
making it an
indispensable
resource for the
legal community.
Ongoing projects
include:
Website
Enhancements: In
an effort to
maintain a world
class research
website for the
Singapore legal
community, periodic
feedback sessions
with users and
internal auditors
and reviewers form
the basis for
frequently
rolled-out
enhancements to the
functionality of the
LawNet service.
New Content:
In order to expand
the stable of
currently available
content and to
enhance the quality
of service to the
LawNet subscriber,
the LawNet
Secretariat has a
standing directive
to gather new and
varied content,
including material
from other
jurisdictions.
