Due to technical complications, the ebooks in the Irwin Law Collection are a bit tricky to find at the moment. The records in the Catalogue have old links and will be replaced soon.
For now, use this URL and then either browse or search for titles. Titles found in Summon are unfortunately a mix of good and bad links right now.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

There will be work on the UBC Catalogue this weekend. Many ejournal records will be removed & later replaced. This may cause problems with people using the “Search for Print and Online Journals” left-hand search box, but will not affect the “Search for Online Journals Only” right-hand search box.
The Citation Linker will not be affected (for ejournals). Clear?
