LexOpus - Free Law Journal Submission System
Sue Altmeyer, Electronic Services Librarian, sue.altmeyer@law.csuohio.edu | April 13, 2009 - 11:46
LexOpus is a new free law journal submission system from Washington & Lee University School of Law. There is no simultaneous submission. Instead, authors submit an ordered list of journals and LexOpus "convey(s) an author's exclusive offer to each chosen journal in sequence for one week each (six weeks for peer-reviewed exclusive-submission journals). On rejection by a journal, or the elapse of the journal's exclusive period, the work will move on to the author's next chosen journal."See About LexOpus
To encourage student authors, one feature will be showing the author a list of publications that accept student works, when the author identifies himself/herself as a student.
Anyone can see author submissions, if the author chooses them to be made publicly available. Authors must sign in to upload and manage works. Journal editors can establish an account that allows them to make publishing decisions.

Well done LexOpus! Your effort surely motivates student authors. A large number of law students should be strongly encouraged on contributing to this new free law journal submission system. They can write on various topics and provide references to readers on lawyer locator service and much more.
