Last month, new natural language processing and machine learning tools were released in beta format in HeinOnline’s Law Journal Library. This blog post described the More Like This tool and new topic and entity application. This month, additional features using these concepts are available.
The Canadian Bar Review has been added to HeinOnline with the August content release. This peer-reviewed legal journal is the successor to Canadian Law Times and Canada Law Journal, which provide important insight into Canadian legal history.
