Do JFK Law students have access to an electronic Bluebook?

The Bluebook Citation Manual

The Digital Bluebook Legal Citation Manual is currently offered to JD students in the JFK School of Law. Activation codes are e-mailed to registered JD students during weeks 3-4 of their first semester. The School of Law also encourages purchasing a personal hard copy on the Bluebook website.. 

Note: If you are beyond your first semester and inquiring about access, please use the initial activation e-mail that was sent from Bluebook, or you can reset your password on the login screen, https://www.legalbluebook.com/login using your school e-mail address. 

Please also see this helpful supplement to the Bluebook:  The Bluebook Uncovered: A Practical Guide to Mastering Legal Citation : (twentieth Edition of the Bluebook)

For more information on how to use the Bluebook, please contact a legal writing coach at the Academic Success Center at askacoach@ncu.libanswers.com, or visit the Legal Writing Resources in the Academic Success Center.
