The same could be true of the next generation of lawyers and their current legal research professors.2 We have likely reached a point at which our frames of reference diverge sufficiently that we don't share a common reference point for approaching the structure of legal research.3 Arguably, the tech - saturated millennials need a solid research foundation more than any generation before them.4 Yet many of them regard our legal research instruction as cumbersome or outdated.5 Having grown up using intuitive electronic devices, and using them to good advantage, 6 many modern law students resist legal research methods that require rigidity, formality, or — worst of all — a trip to a print library.7 Indeed, many of them are downright «mistrustful both of physical libraries and of those who extol their virtues.»
