Important Changes on Westlaw HK and Westlaw International

Westlaw HK and Westlaw International have been officially replaced by Westlaw Asia and WestlawNext respectively since December 31^st, 2015.

CUHK users can now access wider content on Asian jurisdictions (e.g. Hong Kong, Australia, Singapore and India etc), and continue to use the same UK resources from Westlaw HK on Westlaw Asia. U.S. and EU legal materials from Westlaw International are migrated to WestlawNext.

CUHK users can access Westlaw Asia and WestlawNext from E-Resources by Law on CUHK Library Catalogue or from the Law Database List link on the Law Library’s website. CUHK users can also access WestlawNext directly on Westlaw Asia. Please find screenshots for reference.
