ÿþ<title>Minnesota CLE Online Library - How It Works</title> <p style="margin-bottom: 24px; margin-top:6px"><font face="Arial" size="4">How Does the Online Library Work? </font></p> <p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 16px"><b> <font face="Arial" size="2" color="#CC6633">For Everyone:</font></b></p> <p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 24px"><font face="Arial" size="2">Chapters in the Online Library may be searched by seminar, by practice area, by author, or by using keywords. Forms may be searched similarly, although not by author. The first three methods employ simple drop-down menus to locate material; the keyword search uses filters akin to those employed in other widely used search engines. We strongly recommend that users exploring the Online Library via the keyword search first click the  search tips link found next to the keyword entry field, as this provides handy reminders on how to narrow searches and make them more efficient and effective. As long as you have the free Adobe® Reader® (available for download at <a target="_blank" href="http://get.adobe.com/reader/">http://get.adobe.com/reader/</a>), you can conduct searches and view chapter excerpts free of obligation. You will not be able to view content without subscribing to the Online Library or purchasing a chapter or form. </font></p> <p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 16px"><b> <font face="Arial" size="2" color="#CC6633">For Subscribers:</font></b></p> <p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 16px"><font face="Arial" size="2">After you have subscribed to the Online Library and searched for the chapter you wish to view, you will see basic information (seminar, author, date, and length) followed by two links:  View Chapter and  View Excerpt. The excerpt is simply a table of contents or abstract that offers quick insight as to what the chapter contains; clicking on the  View Chapter link will bring up the material in its entirety. All materials posted to the Online Library are presented in the .pdf file format, which means you ll need the free Adobe® Reader® (available for download at <a target="_blank" href="http://get.adobe.com/reader/">http://get.adobe.com/reader/</a>) to view them. Once the .pdf window is open, printing chapters is as simple as clicking the printer icon on the top toolbar, or selecting  Print under the  File menu. You can also save chapters to your computer by clicking on the floppy disk icon on the top toolbar or clicking  File and then  Save As&  in the .pdf window. Subscribers have unlimited access to chapters for one full year, after which the Online Library interface will revert to the non-subscriber view, described below.</font></p> <p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 24px"><font face="Arial" size="2">This information applies to Online Library forms as well, though the interface is slightly different. The title of the form you wish to view will be a hyperlink to its content, and there is no  View Excerpt option. As an added convenience, you will see a hyperlink to the chapter from which the form is drawn.</font></p> <p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 16px"><b> <font face="Arial" size="2" color="#CC6633">For Non-Subscribers:</font></b></p> <p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 16px"><font face="Arial" size="2">After you have searched for the chapter you wish to view, you will see basic information (seminar, author, date, and length) followed by two links:  Buy Chapter and  View Excerpt.
