A Casebrief Search Engine

As classes finish up and another academic year comes to an end, I wanted to share a resource I have been using throughout this semester: A Casebrief Search Engine.

Whether you like to book brief, paper brief or not brief, sometimes it’s nice to be able to reference casebriefs online. I started out using Google and entering case names. The challenge: too many irrelevant results. So I decided to use Google custom search to create a search site that would only index sites that provide casebriefs. While you won’t find every brief, hopefully you’ll find most!

Enjoy, and good luck on finals!

If you know of other sites that should be added, leave them in the comments and we’ll add them ASAP.

    Very cool. Another helpful case brief database is http://www.quimbee.com. It’s very much database driven, though, so I’m not sure if Google will crawl it.

    Thanks David. That’s a great source, and yes Google crawls it! (so we’ve got it) :)
