Welcome to EBSCO’s Legal Information Reference Center tutorial. Legal Information Reference Center
contains hundreds of full-text publications and thousands of legal forms that can help you to independently
address a wide-range of legal issues including financial planning, family law, property & real estate, rights &
disputes, and estate planning. In this tutorial, we will look at conducting a search from the Basic Search
screen, as well as the browsing options available in Legal Information Reference Center.
Let’s begin by conducting a Basic Search in Legal Information Reference Center. Enter your terms in the
Find field and click Search.
By default, your search results will appear in order of relevance, but you can also sort articles by
source, author, or date. You can also refine your results using the limiters in the left-hand column.

Add the result to your Folder by clicking the corresponding icons under the Tools menu on the right.
Navigate to other chapters in the source by clicking the links under the Full Text Contents column on the

toolbar. To see citation and summary information for the article, click Detailed Record.
From the Basic Search screen, you can Browse by Category, Browse Legal Forms by popularity or by
U.S. state, or Browse Popular Sources. Let’s begin by browsing the Wills & Estate Planning category.
