What’s This Page All About?

<p><span><span><span><span lang="EN-US"><span>This page serves as a portal to all LWI and legal writing-related publications.&nbsp; It permits you to search <em>The Monograph Series</em>, <em>The Second Draft</em>, and <em>LWI Lives</em> at the same time by title of publication, volume or issue, and key words.&nbsp; This format will make it easier for these LWI publications to </span></span><span lang="EN-US"><span><span>publish more quickly, publish new and creative types of content, and make individual articles more accessible on web browsers and easier to share through social media.</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>

<p><span><span><span><span lang="EN-US"><span>Each publication retains its individual pages on our website (accessible from the main publications page with links) for posting information specific to that publication, such as the members of the editorial board, new features or issues, etc.</span></span></span></span></span></p>

<p><span><span><span><span lang="EN-US"><span>As of the launch of this site in Fall 2020, all prior issues or volumes of the three publications can be retrieved but with this caveat:&nbsp; </span></span></span></span></span></p>

<h3><span><span><span><strong><span lang="EN-US"><span>Publications prior to Fall 2020</span></span></strong> </span></span></span></h3>

<p><span><span><span><span lang="EN-US"><span>Due to the volume of the prior content, all prior content is limited to what we call a <em>partial upload, </em>meaning that when you find an article, you will have access to its basic information (title, author, date, etc.) and a downloadable pdf of the article.&nbsp; Because <em>The Second Draft</em> and <em>LWI Lives</em> traditionally published an issue or volume in one pdf composed of several articles, you will download a pdf that also includes the other articles in that issue or volume.</span></span></span></span></span></p>

<h3><span><span><span><strong><span lang="EN-US"><span>Publications as of Fall 2020</span></span></strong></span></span></span></h3>

<p><span><span><span><span lang="EN-US"><span>When you find future articles, you will view them in html format as well as a downloadable pdf.&nbsp; The Fall 2020 articles of <em>The Second Draft</em> are our first <em>full uploads</em>.</span></span></span></span></span></p>
