Bluebook Online is providing 60 free days of access to the Bluebook Online.

To obtain an access key, contact Professor Nie at dajiang.nie@ttu.edu.  Keys can only be used once, so you must email Prof. Nie for your own unique key.

To set up an account, you must start a free trial. After you sign up for the free trial, you should LOG IN, and go to this page:https://www.legalbluebook.com/bluebook/subscription. Then, scroll down to the bottom and redeem your key. That will add time to your account. Be sure to use your TTU email address for your username.

Once you've created your individualized account, you will be able to access your account with your username and password.

Your subscription is active 60 days from the date you redeem the key on the website.

Online editions of both the Greenbook and the Manual on Usage and Style are available via the Rulebook app.  Greenbook's price is $15.99 and MoUS's price is $18.99.

Please note: Rulebook app currently only works for Apple devices.
