Yum iSinoLaw You Tasted So Good You Don't Exist Anymore
Just in on the Law Librarian Blog it looks as though it's goodbye iSino law and we're one step closer to a monopoly or we could just say -- same old same old it's duopoly time again
Here's the Piece and it can be found at

TR/Westlaw China Gobbles Up iSinolaw
Sadly, I must report about the latest so-called merger of online publishers. I just received a letter from Stephan Yao, CEO or Thomas Reuters Legal, China and Gordon Wong, Business Director of iSinolaw. According to this letter, the two companies signed an agreement on November 18th, 2011 (Beijing time) where "future iSinolaw will be replaced by Westlaw China service."
The current iSinolaw service will cease functioning on, ahem, Valentine's Day a/k/a February 14th, 2012 (Beijing calendar day).
The letter states that TR will assume iSinolaw's contracts and provide necessary customer support. It does not provide any information about refunds to those of us who subscribe to both Westlaw China and iSinolaw. Typical.
So folks, another one bites the dust. (VS)
