# Using Internal Document Links for Faster Navigation

Speed up your legal research in vLex Library. Learn how to hover over internal links to preview cited cases and statutes without leaving your document.

### Summary

Use vLex Library's internal link previews to get context on a citation without leaving your current document. Simply hover over any internal link to see a summary card with key information.

### Why This is Important

This feature provides a seamless research experience, saving you time and preventing disruption to your workflow. You can quickly assess the relevance of a cited case or statute without needing to open multiple tabs, keeping your research focused.

### How to Use Link Previews

1. While reading any document, locate an internal link (typically blue and underlined).
2. Hover your mouse cursor over the link. **Do not click.**
3. A small dialogue box will appear, showing a preview of the linked document.
   * For **case law**, the preview may show citation data and treatment information.
   * For **legislation**, the preview will show the name of the law and a snippet of text for context.
