What Is the BNA Program?
The BNA Program consists of more than 100 newsletters and reports on a
dozen legal topics. The Law Library's subscription to this program provides
online access in three ways:
- a web-based service
- an email service
- access via LexisNexis and Westlaw
Authorized users may access any of the titles via the
BNA webpage and browse,
read, and search the reports and newsletters. In early 2005 an announcement
will be made about individual email subscriptions for authorized users.
Who May Access the Newsletters & Reports?
Authorized users include:
- University of Washington Law School students, faculty & staff
- other University of Washington students currently enrolled in Law
School courses
- other users visiting the University of Washington Gallagher Law
Library, including members of the UW community and the general public
The initial screen of the
BNA webpage is a gateway to the resources that requires users to affirm
that they are authorized to access these services.
Users who are not eligible to access the online BNA resources may consult
with the Reference staff about comparable material. Use the UW Community
Email Reference Form at
