[blindlaw] Westlaw

Anil,

I obtained an electronic version from the publisher.  I had to buy the hard
copy version and provide proof of purchase, also a letter signed by myself
and the director of disability services for my school, UNC.  I don't know if
the publisher will make this same arrangement for legal professionals; I am
a law school student.

My copy came as a PDF, which I converted to a word document.

Onward!

Just a couple of questions:

Does anyone know where I can obtain an accessible copy of the Bluebook of
Citations 18th edition?  I have the audio version, and I am working on
obtaining a braille version.  I would prefer it in an electronic format that
I can use on my  Pacmate.

Also, does anyone use the Westlaw database with JAWS?  Are there any helpful
hints on accessing the system with JAWS?
