Online and Print Study Aids and Supplements 

The Law Library provides online and print access to leading law school study aids and supplements, including for all 1L courses. Online study aids are provided through the Wolters Kluwer Online Study Aids Library and the West Study Aids Subscription. See our detailed "Guide to Law Library Study Aids" to learn more about how different study aids series, such as Concise Hornbooks, Emanuels, or Examples & Explanations will best suit your individualized study needs. The online study aid libraries also provide key law school "academic success" volumes such as 1L of a Ride and Cracking the Case Method: Legal Analysis for Law School Success.

The Guide to Law Library Study Aids also provides information on our print study aids collection, which contains print versions of leading series such as Concise Hornbooks and Examples & Explanations. The print study aids collection is located on the first floor of the Law Library.
