More Info

Two levels of access:
 

There are two levels of access to West Academic materials licensed by Tarlton.   There are additional features of the West Academic Study Aids collection that are available if you create a West Academic account using your UT e-mail, including adding your own notes and comments, using the ereader, and using materials off-line. To start your personal access account click “Create an Account” on the top right corner of the personal account login page.  If you previously created a West Academic account that is tied to your “utexas” email address, you should be able to sign in to the website with those credentials.

Note for personal account creation:
 

Before you create your personal account make sure to clear your browser cache if you have established institutional access within your current browsing session.  You should not see “Hello University of Texas School of Law Guest” in the upper right. Trying to create a personal account from the institutional page may cause users to encounter errors. To avoid these errors you can open and close all tabs of your browser or clear you cache. Here are some instructions on how to clear the cache from popular browsers:

  1. Google Chrome: Clear cache & cookies on the Google Support site.
  2. Mozilla Firefox: How to clear the Firefox cache on the Mozilla Support site.
  3. Apple Safari: Clear the history, cache, and cookies from Safari on the Apple Support site.
 

Troubleshooting: 
  • If you open the app or website and get the following error message, when it worked previously or is a new account, you may need to verify or re-verify (needs to be renewed every 12 months) your account.  Look to see the school affiliation in your profile, click the down arrow in the right hand corner next to your name, choose My Account, and it should say UT School of Law. Then choose to verify your UT email address. A link will then be sent to your UT e-mail.  Once you are verified, log back in after your cache has been cleared or you have open/closed your browser and you should see the UT School of Law in affiliation.
