Licence for 20 (twenty) concurrent users only. Use Safari static hyperlinks to share books with students. Regarding any CD or DVD content that accompanied the original print book: "Many books are published with a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM included. Safari Books Online provides a platform for publishers to included this additional content to Safari users in the book's main page. We refer to this additional content as Extras. If a book or video in Safari Books Online comes with extra content, it will be found on this tab. While we strive to provide the CD/DVD-Rom content for all Safari material, in some cases the publisher is unable to provide this extra content to us. This is usually due to legal and/or licensing agreements with the book's author or content provider for the CD/DVD-Rom. Please contact Safari Customer Service if you have a question about the Extras content about a specific book" (20 October 2010: Help (at the very bottom) > "Where is the CD/DVD-ROM content for my book?"). |
