Free EBook Guide
Posted: Wed Aug 10, 2022 2:40 pm
Hello Law Students!
The Law Library has put together a list of your required textbooks by class! It is available for 1Ls here: https://research.lib.buffalo.edu/fall22textbooks1l and for Upper-Level students here: https://research.lib.buffalo.edu/upperl ... 2textbooks. These guides includes links to the various online retailers, the University Bookstore, and when available, links to free electronic copies provided by the Law Library. You may notice that some of the titles include notes indicating we hope to make free e-book copies available to you. We are working with both Aspen/Wolters Kluwer and West Academic to make those available before the start of classes. We hope that you will have access either by the start of the semester or shortly thereafter. The Textbook Guide is a work-in-progress, so please check back periodically for updates. We hope to have more information (and links) to share with you soon!
For titles available through the Lexis Nexis Digital Library, you may be prompted to enter our Library Access Code. If so, it is Buffalolaw, all one word with a capital "B."
Finally, regarding print textbook access, the Law Library does offer access to physical copies of some required 1L coursebooks as well as some upper-level coursebooks for in-library use only. One copy will be placed on the 5th floor of the Law Library and available for reading inside the library without the need to check it out. The other copy will be located behind the Service Desk on the 2nd floor and will be available for a 2 hour loan. These may be used within the library only. We also have scanners on the 2nd and 5th floors if you would like to scan your readings ahead of time.
I hope you will find the Textbook Guide useful as you work on compiling your course materials, and that you will make use of our electronic resources and print Course Reserve Collection once classes begin. Remember, we are actively adding more ebooks to our collection, so continue checking in to see what we have available!
As always, if you have any questions, please let me know!
Best,
Austin
