Most Inlibra content is subject to a fee and will be activated after purchase. Afterwards, you can access the content. Simply send us an email at service@inlibra.com and let us know which titles you are interested in. We will then inform you about the prices without any obligation.

Activation requires an active account. Please refer to our help section "How can I create an account for Inlibra?" for this.

The quickest and simplest way to search is via the search bar on the Inlibra homepage. Alternatively, click the magnifying glass symbol next to the language selection. Enter your search term into the search bar. This searches the full text of all available content.

For a detailed search, use the "Advanced Search" function. A menu then opens that allows you to refine your search.

A useful method for increasing the number of relevant results is truncation. For example, if you want to search for every occurrence of "Rechtsphilosophie", instead of entering only "Rechtsphilosophie" you can use truncation and enter "rechtsphil*" — this will produce far more results, because words such as "rechtsphilosophisch", "rechtsphilosophische", etc. will also be found.

Inlibra combines the Nomos academic programme from 2007 onwards. You will also find many of our journal issues published since that time.

You can browse the content via a thematic structure on the left-hand side of the screen — the titles are organised under "Subject Areas", thematically grouped into Law, Politics, Economics, Media Studies, History, Sociology, Educational Research, Europe, Health and Philosophy.

By clicking on a subject area, the corresponding result list opens; you can then further refine your search using various criteria, such as publication year or publication type.

Our practitioner literature such as legal texts, commentaries and form books can be found in the NomosShop at http://www.nomos-shop.de/ or in digital form on beck-online.de.
