Westlaw AU enables you to annotate a document to personalise your research. You can choose to add Inline or Document Notes as well as Highlight text within a document.  By adding an Inline Note in a document you can reduce the need to print and mark up documents.

How to Create an Inline Note
An Inline note is associated with selected text in a document and can be found directly next to the selected text.

Step 1: Log onto Westlaw AU with your OnePass.

Step 2: From the Home Page or an Advanced Search template conduct a search and open a document.

Step 3: To add an Inline Note, left mouse click and run your mouse over the selected text.  Release the mouse and choose the Add Note option from the pop up window.

Step 4: In the Add Note window, enter your text.  Click the Add Note button to save.

Step 5: When adding your first note, you will be prompted “Add this document to a folder”.  You can choose to save the note to a folder.

Step 6: The text will be highlighted and the note will appear in the right hand margin of the document.

Note: You can add multiple inline notes to a document.  Simply repeat steps 3-6.
