The Cost of Computer-assisted Legal Research by Mary E. Pigott,Canadian Law Information Council Pdf
This publication analyzes the practical consequences of pricing structures on the overall cost and effectiveness of online legal research. Canada's two major Common Law retrieval systems, QL Systems and CAN/LAW, offer their databases through different pricing concepts. It discusses the implications of this difference and goes on to suggest a number of practical strategies for maximizing research results at the lowest possible cost.
