Getting or Finding Your Westlaw/TWEN and LexisNexis Passwordss

September 1st, 2006

Need a new Westlaw/TWEN or LexisNexis password? Can’t find your old one? We’re here for you:

NEED A PASSWORD

1Ls, transfer and visiting students receive their passwords at orientation; LL.M students will receive theirs from Lin Harmon.

Still don’t have one? Just stop by the law library reference desk when a librarian is present and we?ll set you up with new passwords.

LOST PASSWORDS

Can’t remember your passwords? No problem – here’s how to retrieve ‘em:

Westlaw

  1. Retrieve you password: Answer your security question (just have to remember which question you filled in when registering)
  2. Call Westlaw anytime: 1-800-WESTLAW (1-800-937-8529)
  3. Ask a reference librarian: We have most passwords at the reference desk. Just ask!
  4. Contact our Westlaw Account Manager: Randy Widdiston, randy.widdison@thomson.com

LexisNexis

  1. Retrieve your password: Answer your security question – as long as you remember your “Custom ID”
  2. Retrieve your Custom ID (choice a): Access the registration system with the “activation code” you used to register in the first place
  3. Retrieve your Custom ID (choice b): Contact our LexisNexis Account Executive Aaron Meyers at (206) 323-9537 or aaron.meyers@lexisnexis.com
