Introduction
You will be reading and citing landmark and significant, as well as the most recently published, federal court cases and NLRB decisions. Since no secondary source is completely up to date, only primary sources will be able to lead you to the most recent cases. Lexis Nexis Academic and the BNA Labor and Employment Law Library are good sources of the text of court cases, including recent cases. NLRB Decisions are not included in Lexis-Nexis Academic and are often only available in BNA in abbreviated form, so you may need to read the full decision in the official NLRB volumes, which are available online as well as in print.

Full-text of NLRB decisions rather than the abbreviated versions published by BNA and CCH. Cross-reference tables are in the front of each volume matching the decision number with the starting page. There is usually a time gap of several years before a bound volume is issued.
