File it under EZ2remember; adherence to naming convention can avoid document retrieval problems

Article Abstract:

Managing computer files can be facilitated by consistency among the staff. Every file system should have systematic backups, and each machine separate backups if there is no network in the office. It is good for attorneys to have a forms directory with subdirectories for each practice area. When each file name starts with the numerical date the files are automatically divided by date in an alphabetical listing. Another idea is having a directory called 'clients' and a subdirectory with the last name of each active client.

New approach to cite-seeing: West/Thompson merger yields all-electronic method of researching cases

Article Abstract:

West Publishing Group has released an electronic research system, KeyCite, that is only available online to maintain its currency. The graphical interface is well programmed, allowing for links to cases, case histories, precedent cases and other authorities. The product was released shortly after the West and Thompson merger, indicating a change in West's focus on print products. No CD-Rom version is planned because of the currency requirements.
