What is a "Document"?

- Essays (incl. book chapters, journal articles, online guidance, etc.),
- Legislation (incl. laws, treaties, regulations, rules, etc.), and
- Caselaw (incl. court decisions, arbitral decisions, etc.).
Overview
The Overview page features bibliographic Publication information and a descriptive text and/or bullet points highlighting the aim of the publication, the intended audience, and the features and benefits.
Table of contents
The table of contents on the left side of the page provides an overview of the document's structure and content, enabling easy navigation through its (sub)headings. Headings with subheadings can be expanded or collapsed for smoother navigation. If the document belongs to a larger collection, such as a book or journal, you can switch between other documents in the same publication by clicking on their respective entries.
Document Text
The document information box provides key details about the document, offering better context and understanding. This metadata varies depending on the type of document (e.g., essay, legislation, or case law) but may include information such as authorship, origin, document type, and copyright. When citing the document, a Bibliographic Reference can be used to accurately indicate its source.
Searching Within a Document
Users can search within the document using CTRL+F for basic searches or the Search within Publication feature at the top of the table of contents for advanced searches, including the use of Boolean operators like AND, NEAR, OR, and -*.
Sharing
A document can be shared for offline use by clicking on one of the four icons (from left to right):
- Download the document in PDF format, using standard settings.
- Print the document, using customizable settings, including the omission of the document summary and the selection of font size.
- Share to generate an email with a link to the document, which you can personalize. Note: The recipient of the email will require subscription credentials to access the links sent.
- Favorite adds the document to your Favorites so you can access it quickly in the future.
Navigating
If the document is part of a larger set of content, such as a book or journal, you can navigate between the documents in this set by clicking Previous or Next.
Full Text
The full text of the document displays page breaks from the original printed materials marked by horizontal lines, with the corresponding page numbers shown above and below each break. Footnotes are listed at the end of the document but can also be accessed directly by clicking on their numbers, which opens a dialog box displaying the full text of the selected footnote.
