Lexis Tips and Tricks for Researching Nonprofits, Government Entities, and Universities Online
Join us for a training on researching nonprofits, associations, local/state government entities and universities using Nexis Diligence, Lexis+, and Public Records. This session will show you how to strengthen your background research and due diligence by:
- Using a single platform and unified search to quickly access current information about an entity, including any negative news
- Identifying sources specifically relevant to organizational and entity research
- Applying SmartLink technology to uncover relationships and connections that may not be immediately visible
- Setting up alerts to monitor new developments and stay informed over time
