Biography

Hi, my names Robert Donaldson and I'm the LexisNexis student associate for Aberystwyth University. I'm currently reading Law in Aberystwyth and will graduate in 2013. After my undergraduate degree I hope to study a postgraduate course and continue my legal education at Aberystwyth. I am here for any students that need help using LexisNexis, I will also be running training sessions all year. You can book onto one of those sessions by emailing me at robertdonaldson1@hotmail.co.uk. I am also available for drop-in sessions every Tuesday between 11:00 and 13:00 in the law library. I look forward to seeing you soon :)
