LEXIS ID CHANGES:

Effective June 28th, ALL law school customers (students and faculty) will be required to register their 7-digit LexisNexis.com ID and create a custom ID and password (currently customers can use their 7-digit ID without creating a custom ID and password). The majority of customers have already created a custom ID and password and WILL NOT be affected by these changes. Those who have not created a custom ID and password will be forced to do so when signing-on to LexisNexis.com. Below are details of how this new policy will affect specific customers:

1L’s
1L’s will receive a 7-digit activation code (it looks just like the 7-digit ID number). It is printed on a literature card that is about 4x6 inches in size. The student will visit the homepage, enter the activation code, and then create a custom ID and password. Creating a custom ID and password is required, not optional as it was last year. The seven digit access code will then cease to exist.

2L’s/3L’s/Faculty/Others
Any of these customers who have already registered their ID and created a custom ID and password will not be affected by this change (assuming that they sign-on with their custom ID and password and not their 7-digit ID number). Those who have not created a custom ID and password will be prompted to do so when they first sign-on to LexisNexis.com on or after June 28th.
