What is Lifetime Access?

What is Lifetime Access?

With lifetime access, you have the right to view your eTextbook online indefinitely, for as long as VitalSource has rights to the content. You also have the option to download the eTextbook for offline access on your computer and mobile devices. To ensure access to your eTextbook offline, you must download it within 180 days of purchase.

Once your online access has ended the perpetual download license enables you to continuously access the eTextbook offline through our free Bookshelf application even after the online license expires.

To download your digital material, please click the link below and install an applicable version of the application for the device you are using.
