West Academic Early Access Casebooks

Spring 2024

The Library has partnered with West Academic to provide early access to e-casebooks this semester. The program enables free temporary online access to casebooks published by West and assigned by GMU law professors. It lasts for three weeks--the week before classes start to two weeks after.  The program is meant to help students who haven’t been able to get their print casebook yet or who are interested in exploring whether an e-casebook would work for them. It includes a discounted price for the e-book, should you decide to purchase an electronic copy after temporary free access ends. PLEASE NOTE: It is not possible to access an e-casebook during a fully locked down Examplify Exam. If you are considering using an e-casebook, you need to consider the type of exam for the course and speak to our Technology Services staff (room 362 in the Law Library) to be sure that an e-casebook will work for you. 

The list of available casebooks can be viewed here. Sign in with your West Academic credentials--this is the same username and password you use to sign-in to the West Online Study Aids database.
