We're pleased to announce the launch of a new online access system for managingip.com today. Anyone can now read any five articles, including blog posts, free of charge

That means you can now read up to five articles from the thousands available online - including from our latest news, our archive of articles going back to 1999 and this blog - without a subscription.

Once you have read five articles, as long as you have a subscription or corporate account, you can continue reading simply by logging in. For more information on subscribing or adding multiple users, contact our subscriptions manager Daniel Bloomer.

If you do not have a subscription, then once you have reached the five article limit you will be able to see our latest offers and subscribe online. Subscribers receive paper copies of Managing IP magazine and supplements, and regular emails tailored to their areas of interest.

Sponsored and promotional articles continue to be available freely to everyone, as does the editorial content on our sister site ipstars.com.
