The county is renewing its contract with LexisNexis for legal research materials — both print and digital — for one year at a cost of $182,380, without going through a competitive bidding process because LexisNexis is the only available provider.

What it means for you

County staff who need legal research tools will continue to have access to LexisNexis services; the sole source exemption means no other vendors were asked to compete for the contract.
