The TP-ALL Database Is Your One-Stop Research Shop
You can search more than 2,000 analytical resources on Westlaw at one time.
If you are not sure where to start your research on a new topic, using the Texts and Periodicals-All Law Reviews, Texts, and Bar Journals database (TP-ALL) is a cost-effective way to begin. TP-ALL contains documents from more than 2,000 analytical sources, including law reviews, texts, CLE course materials, bar journals, legal practice-oriented periodicals, American Law Reports (ALR®), and American Jurisprudence 2d (Am Jur® 2d). (If you want to search just journals and law reviews, try the Journals and Law Reviews database (JLR).) The documents in TP-ALL can provide useful background on an unfamiliar topic and important concepts and terms you can use in subsequent research.
Because this database contains large numbers of lengthy documents, it is a good fit for Natural Language searching. With Natural Language, you can enter a description of your issue in plain English using terms that describe its main concepts. After you run your search, Westlaw displays the documents most closely matching the concepts in your description first. Use the enhanced result list to help identify relevant documents in your search result.
To run a search, access the TP-ALL database. At the Search page, click the Natural Language tab if it is not already selected, and type a Natural Language description such as unauthorized use of copyrighted content on the Internet. Choose a date from the Dates drop-down list if you want to restrict your search by date and click Search Westlaw.
