There are several things that might be preventing your access to an electronic resource. Go through each of these sections to determine what's going on.
UMich Status
Law Library subscription resources may be limited to all Michigan students/employees or just to current Michigan Law students/employees.
If you have any questions about what resources you are eligible to access, please contact askalawlibrarian@umich.edu.
Click through the Law Library link.
The links in our catalog and on our web pages are specifically designed to direct users through our proxy servers and offer the best chance of access.
Instead of finding the resource through Google, find it in our catalog and click through to make use of proxy access.
Use the VPN.
The VPN allows you to use the internet as if you were on campus, providing instant access to many subscription databases.
