Law School Success: Technology Training

PowerNotes is an efficient platform that allows you to capture, save, annotate, and organize your online research.  The George W. Hopper Law Library subscribes to PowerNotes for all College of Law students, faculty, and staff.  Sign up using your UWYO email address to create your account, and then download the PowerNotes web browser extension. 

Begin with these PowerrNotes video tutorials to get set up:

• Getting Started: Account Set up

• PowerNotes Basics: An Overview of Tools & Features

And then consider advanced video trainings on saving images, project sharing and exporting, and using PowerNotes OCR on troublesome PDFs.

The George W. Hopper Law Library subscribes to Procertas, an interactive legal technology training program, available to all College of Law students, faculty, and staff.  The trainings are interactive and guide users through software processes required to efficiently draft and edit briefs, contracts, memos, and PDFs. There are also modules for mastering Bluebook citations, Excel, and PowerPoint.  You can explore individual modules of interest, or focus your attention and earn a digital badge.

Look for an invitation in your UWYO mailbox to set up your account, or contact a law librarian to request access.
