Cornell's Legal Information Institute (LII) and the Center for Computer-Assisted Legal Instruction (CALI) have teamed up to create free eBook versions of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and the Federal Rules of Evidence. The ebooks are published in the .epub format, making them compatible with iPads, iPhones, Nooks, and numerous other e-reader programs. However, these ebooks are not compatible with Amazon's Kindle. CALI and LII promise that "Kindle support is coming soon."
