1st Year Book List

You must purchase and use books and materials listed on this webpage for the courses in which you are currently enrolled. It is highly recommended that for each you buy the most recent edition. The purchase and use of older editions is, however, not expressly prohibited. Those who buy an older edition must be aware that there could be significant changes that were made for the publication of the newer edition. Nevertheless, it is not uncommon for the newest edition of a law school book to have only a few, relatively non-material changes when compared to a somewhat recent older edition. You can determine which publications are the most recent and obtain information about the age of the older publications by checking websites of publishers and bookstores on the Internet.
