The document delivery limit is currently 500, pending review. However, customers are reminded that they cannot download more than one or two chapters at a time or risk being in breach of their terms of service. We monitor for excessive usage and accounts can be suspended if this is detected.

We have released a page-level link builder. This works in the same way as the previous site, in that you will be able to generate a link to a given web page. You will not be able to generate a link that then also takes you to a particular paragraph within that webpage.

Westlaw UK Books can be accessed from the product dropdown in the top left-hand corner. There are also links to books from cases, legislation and Practical Law content. The new books service delivers a considerably enhanced experience, tailored for commentary content.

We expect all customers to be using the new Westlaw UK as their main research service by the end of November 2019. Around this time all links to the existing service will be redirected to relevant pages on the new service or the new Westlaw UK homepage. The existing Westlaw UK platform will be closed on the 14th of December 2019.

Current Westlaw UK is still available and customers can continue to access it in the usual way. Any new features and enhancements from 2019 and beyond will be released on the new Westlaw UK only. There will be a period of dual access where customers can access both the current and new versions of Westlaw UK. 

There is no additional charge for using the new service and the content and features in your subscription. The new service will include add-on content and features that may be outside of your subscription.
