Introduction to Basic Legal Citation:
e-book versions fall 2011

To load any of the following e-book versions on a dedicated reader (Kindle, Nook, Sony, etc.), you'll need first to download the appropriate file to a computer (right-button click and "save as" with a windows machine) and then transfer it to the device. If you are using e-book software installed on a computer that second step is unnecessary.

While these e-books are available without charge, do consider making a donation to the Legal Information Institute of Cornell Law School in the amount you would pay Amazon or Barnes & Noble for a comparable title. To do so, click here.



1) For the Kindle and other readers that use the mobipocket format: basic_legal_citation.prc

2) For the Nook, Sony, and other readers that can use the epub format: basic_legal_citation.epub

3) For readers, tablet and other computers able to handle large pdf files (approx. 2.4 MB)*: basic_legal_citation.pdf

If you have difficulty downloading any of these do let me know.

* While some of the dedicated readers claim to read pdf, I have my doubts about their ability to handle a file of this size and complexity. Nonetheless, I would welcome your experimenting with this format on any of those that claim pdf compatibility (and reporting the results back to me). A test with an early Nook caused the device to freeze (which required rebooting). A test on a Kindle DX found it capable of displaying the work's pages without difficulty, but oblivious to the hyperlinks by which one navigates from the table of contents and topical index to a section of interest or follows any of the myriad cross-references. - pwm
