West Academic Study Aids has a new link: http://ezproxy.uakron.edu:2048/login?url=https://subscription.westacademic.com. If you are on campus, no login credentials are needed. If you are off campus, you will be asked to log in with your UAnet Id and password.

If you used West Academic Study Aids in the past and created an account, your account will still work.
Additionally, West Academic now provides online access to 43 West Hornbooks. Hornbooks are the hardbound books with the green covers that your professors often recommend you consult to clarify concepts discussed in class. Hornbooks provide straightforward analysis and are written by experts in the field. Flashcards for Contracts and Torts are also now available, as are the Law Stories series (brings to life the groundbreaking cases with a combination of narration and analysis to introduce the key participants and set the legal and historical context.)
Due to nonworking air-conditioning and extreme heat conditions, the Law Library location at Central Hower will be closed until further notice. The law library staff will be available at the law library at the Law Center, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m..

The circulation period and overdue fines for OASP and Sum and Substance materials will change for Reading Period and Finals. Starting on Friday, April 29, these materials will circulate for only 1 day (instead of 72 hours) and no renewals will be allowed. Overdue fines for these materials will increase from $1.00 per day to $5.00 per day.
These changes provide access to the materials for a greater number of students. If you have questions regarding these changes please stop by the Circulation Desk and ask to speak with Ms. Nevins or a librarian.
