Some of the topics covered include cost-effective research, practice-oriented resources and databases, state specific research, legal technology and artificial intelligence, and court and public records.
The program is designed and taught by Penn State Law Library Faculty. In order to receive an official Law School certificate of completion and recognition on this website students must attend four hours of classroom instruction.

“PORTT taught me countless invaluable skills that I will certainly be able to use in practice. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the various productivity tools that lawyers are using to keep connected to their clients and educated in their field. The thorough examination of the advanced research strategies by the Penn State Law Library Faculty taught me to utilize the legal resources available in the law library and online in a unique way that I could not find in the traditional law school class. Thanks again!” — Sean Jordan
"As someone who will be practicing with a firm after graduation, the majority of my time over the next several years will be spent researching and writing. Any chance to gain additional experience in these skills will be helpful in my preparation to practice.” — Student comment
