Welcome to the 2025 edition of the MacMillan Law Library’s Summer RA Workshop Research Guide. This guide has been created to help the Summer RAs of 2025 find answers to some of our most Frequently Answered Questions covered during the 3-hour workshop held on Wednesday, May 7, 2025.
Each workshop presenter has created a page in this guide that includes information about the topic discussed. Some pages also include additional information, explanations, and links beyond what was covered in our short time together.
If you can’t find the answers here or on our website, www.library.law.emory.edu, feel free to reach out to us via our Student Research Consultation Request form which you can use to ask us a simple question or request an in-depth, one-on-one consultation with one of our librarians.
