The Online Library bookshelf helps readers organize and manage any owned titles in online or eBook formats. All online titles offer fully searchable text and indexes. Useful in conjunction with print editions, the Online Library is an innovative, dynamic platform for online research.
Law Journal Press offers titles in over 30 practice areas and 9 specific regions, written by authors who are among the nation’s most highly regarded members of the profession.
