The first time you use Westlaw, you will be prompted to create a ‘Thomson Reuters OnePass’ profile. Simply register with your name and university email address. The profile enables personalisation services including creating favourites, saving documents, highlighting and annotating documents, and setting up current awareness email alerts. If you prefer to remain anonymous, please enter a fake name and email address (in the format x@x), but keep a record of your registration in case you need to contact Thomson Reuters Customer Services in the future. If accessing Westlaw Edge UK from the Thomson Reuters ‘Westlaw UK’ sign-in page, click on ‘Access Through Academic Institution’, select ‘University of Warwick’, and login with your university IT username and password. You may be prompted to login this way if accessing Westlaw from a Google internet search, or if following a link to a document from your reading list.
