Harvard Law Review Launches eBook Editions with May 2011 Issue

Harvard Law Review issues are being produced digitally in multiple eBook formats by Quid Pro Books starting with vol. 124, no. 7 (May 2011), Quid Pro Books editions feature active Contents, linked footnotes, active URLs in citations, and proper eBook formatting. The law review's current issue is available on Amazon for Kindle, Barnes & Noble for Nook, and at the Apple iTunes bookstore. See the Quid Pro Books announcement for details and links to the eCommerce sites.

Harvard Law Review joins Stanford Law Review in making available issues produced by Quid Pro Books. Quid Pro Books became the exclusive eBook publisher of Stanford Law Review with the publication of the December 2010 issue (vol. 63, no. 1).

Quid Pro Books was launched last year by Tulane Law's Conrad Meyer III Professor of Civil Procedure and Legal Profession Blog co-editor Alan Childress. For background on this publishing venture, see LLB's September 2010 interview series with Alan Childress, "Law Prof as Independent Law Book Publisher," Part 1 and Part 2. [JH]
