In order to protect our publishers and authors against infringement of copyright, we do not facilitate the printing or sharing of books bought on our site. 

In order to read eBooks purchased on Digital Canopi, you will require either a personal computer, laptop, or handheld/mobile device. We offer eBooks in two different formats: Offline (PDF download)  and Online Reader.  Our Online Reader requires no software other than an internet browser. Additionally, for offline access, we will provide you with a link to download the appropriate Reader software, free of charge, when you make a purchase. This is so that the books you have paid for can be accessed without the use of the wi-fi. However, it is important to note, that this process requires internet access for a one-time verification of your purchases.

If a publisher issues a redeemable code to a user, the user can input the issued code on Digital Canopi, to access a specific title.

2. Navigate to the specific title to be redeemed, either by making use of the search bar at the top of the page or by making use of the categories tab from the left-hand side menu
3. Once on the book detail page, click the "Use DC Code" button and enter your issued code.
4. You can now access your book under the "My Books" tab in the left-hand side menu.

What is the difference between Subscription and Purchase?
As a registered user on Digital Canopi, you are able to either purchase an eBook, subscribe to an eBook for a determined period of time, or redeem a code, in order to obtain an eBook.
A purchased eBook gives the user, lifetime access to the eBook once that user maintains an internet connection or is able to authenticate and download all books they have purchased from Digital Canopi to their personal devices. Alternatively, the user may wish to subscribe to an eBook. The duration and price of the subscription option are pre-set by the publisher. The User understands that they will be paying the publisher for access to the content of the eBook for the time specified by the publisher and that after the expired date, the eBook will be removed from the user's account. 

Subscription vs. Purchase

Yes, you can subscribe to a book on Digital Canopi. Subscribing to a particular title is simply another way of renting the eBook or eTextbook for
a stipulated amount of time set forth by the publisher*.  You may choose the option to subscribe to the book when selecting the book for purchase.

The cost of the book is usually cheaper than an outright purchase of the book.  Once purchased as a subscription, the book will be housed on your
