With the introduction of dial-up terminals for searching case law in the 1970s, legal research was one of the first areas of scholarship to move into the electronic world. Access to primary source materials on the law has traditionally been much more difficult for scholars outside of law schools, the judicial system, or the legal profession. Today, computerised databases are used to conduct the majority of legal research in law schools, courts, and the legal profession as a whole which makes the lives of legal professionals easier.
HeinOnline is one such online research platform. that has a vast collection of multidisciplinary periodicals, government documents, political science classics, academic journals and world constitutions.
HeinOnline was founded in 2000 by William S. Hein & Co with the goal of combining the authority of print with the convenience of online access. The Law Journal Library, HeinOnline's first online database, marked the platform's foray into the online research community. Since then, the Law Journal Library has expanded to include nearly 40 other disciplines, in addition to law, and has become a resource used by millions.
