Online Book Policies

What are the online books?

The online books are online versions of the same content included in the printed version of the books. In addition, they are searchable online, updated continually, and linked to the full text of Michigan primary law resources and some federal law resources.

How long do subscriptions to an online book last?

One year. Your subscription starts the day you sign up and runs for 12 months. Several months before the year is up, we will send you a renewal notice.

How much do online books cost per year?

Prices vary by book and by the number of lawyers in your firm. Subscription prices are based on firm size. Small firms are those with 0–4 lawyers, medium firms are those with 5–29 lawyers, and large firms are those with 30 or more lawyers. See the ICLE store for complete pricing for each title.

What discounts apply to subscriptions to the online books?

Premium Partners have access to all ICLE online books as part of their Partnership subscription.

ICLE Basic Partners receive a 10 percent discount on the full price of first-year subscriptions to online books. This discount may not be combined with other sales or discounts.

Do we need to pay for the entire subscription year when we sign up?

Yes. You must pay for the entire year's subscription when you sign up for online access. The annual subscription fee is nonrefundable.

How do we know which firm size category we are?

Include all lawyers associated with the law firm, including employees and contract lawyers who spend a significant amount of time on the firm's clients' matters or will have access to the firm's computer resources. You must also count law school graduates who will take or have taken the Michigan Bar exam but not law students or summer associates.

Do I need to be a lawyer to purchase an online book?

No, you do not need to be a lawyer to purchase an online book.

We are an association or library other than a law firm library. Can we purchase an online book subscription for use by our members or patrons?

No, subscriptions to the online books are for the individual purchaser's use or for use within a law firm.

What terms of use govern my usage of the online books?

Permitted usage of the online books is governed by the subscription agreement.

May I cancel at any time?

You may cancel at any time, but the annual subscription fee is nonrefundable.
