Smarter Analytics
New! Access law firm analysis—right from your case

It’s changed. Now see what happens when you click a source title …
Go ahead! Select a title (or several) for searching. Now it’s
even easier.
• Select a source title suggested in the Red Search Box and go
directly to the Advanced Search Form or Table of Contents
(if applicable) for that source to begin your search.
• Or add a suggested source to your search simply by clicking
the new magnifying glass icon to the right of the suggested
source in the Red Search Box. Repeat to add additional
sources. To remove a source, just click the magnifying glass
icon next to the title again.
Source selection using the Explore Content feature works the same: Click a source and move directly to the Advanced Search form or Table of Contents for that source. (You can also add
multiple sources from Explore Content to a search by checking the box to the left of the source.)
More Search PowerCover U.S. news by region—in one search
When you need to search for news across a region, now
you’re done in one search. The Explore Content pod on the Lexis
Advance home page offers five U.S. regions to choose from,
bringing your results into better focus.
Select News from the Content Type tab available on the main
Explore Content screen. Then click U.S. by Region. To see what
states are covered in a region, click the “i” icon next to a region,
e.g., next to Northwest.
Quickly refine statute, administrative code and treaty searches using new segments
Segments are document parts, like the headline of a news article.
At Lexis Advance, you can search within the unique document
segments of a content type. For example, search for specific
words in the title of a treaty.
Now you can:
• Search the statute or administrative code text only,
excluding annotations and related editorial content
• Zero in on treaties affecting only specified signatories—
parties and nations of interest
Just use the TEXT segment with statutes or administrative
codes or the PARTIES segment with treaties. Both segments are
available in the Advanced Search form specific to your content
type. Advanced Search forms are available from the Red Search
Box. Just click Advanced Search. Advanced Search forms
also display automatically when you select the title in Explore
Content listings.
More Search Power
Executive Orders are big news—and easy to f ind
Quickly pinpoint key research information in Executive Orders. To quickly locate these increasingly important
documents, start with the Red Search Box, entering: presidential documents. Select the Presidential Documents and Executive Orders source, which offers a variety of presidential documents,
including Executive Orders, Presidential Proclamations,
presidential memoranda, notices, determinations, etc., from the
Federal Register, some as far back as 1979.
Explore Content also now presents this source at the top of the
Federal tab. Just click the tab and select the source to begin your
search. Enter your search terms, for example, ENTER: trump and immigration, and go.
