Usage Note
Asimismo is a formal written connector meaning 'likewise' or 'in addition.' It is common in official documents, news writing, and academic prose. In spoken or informal Spanish, también or además are preferred. Do not split it into así mismo (meaning 'just like that') — the two forms have different meanings.
