Downloading PDFs

Adobe Acrobat Reader is required to view PDF files, such as Position Papers, event flyers and media kits. If you are having difficulties opening pdf files, please make sure that you have the most current version of Adobe Acrobat installed on your device.

Accessing your eBook

Note: Please be sure any eBook purchases you made between February 2013 and April 2015 are downloaded to your device. As of March 31, 2020, the eBook platform will no longer be available.

For eBooks purchased between February 1, 2013 and April 8, 2015:

Be sure that the required eReader software for your device is installed before you download your eBook.

  1. Use the links below to download and install the appropriate eReader software for your device if one is not already installed:
    • PC or Mac: Adobe Digital Editions (note: this is NOT Adobe Reader)
    • iOS device (iPad, iPod, iPhone): Bluefire Reader
    • Android device: Aldiko or any other reader that supports Adobe DRM
    • eReader device (Nook, Sony Reader, etc): doesn’t require software, but, the device must be able to support Adobe DRM and the ePub format (consult your device’s manual to confirm). You will need to download your eBook to a PC or Mac first and use Adobe Digital Editions to transfer it to your eReader (consult your device’s manual for additional instructions on how to transfer your downloaded eBook from your computer to your device)
  2. Once you’ve installed the appropriate software, come back to My Account > My eLibrary and click on the eBook’s image above to initiate the download of that eBook.
  3. Open the downloaded eBook in your chosen eReader software.
  4. Enter your Adobe ID when prompted. If you don’t have an Adobe ID you will need to create one (see “What is an Adobe ID?” below).
    • What is an Adobe ID? An Adobe ID is a free and non-intrusive way of verifying your eBook license. You need only provide a name, country, and valid e-mail address.
    • You can create your Adobe ID when prompted or go directly to the Adobe ID page on Adobe’s website and click on the “Don’t have an Adobe ID?” link. Follow the instructions for creating your Adobe ID.
    • Once you’ve received a confirmation email from Adobe and confirmed your email address, return to your eReader software and enter the Adobe ID and password you created.
    • You may view a list of FAQs on Adobe’s website for more information about Adobe IDs and Adobe Digital Editions.
  5. Once you’ve downloaded your eBook and opened it in an eReader you will not need to come back to this page to access your book unless you wish to download it to another device.

Downloading your eBook to multiple devices: You may download your eBook to up to six devices (laptop, iPad, smart phone, etc) using the same Adobe ID. Devices may be deauthorized in the event that you get a new device. If you reach the limit, contact Adobe Customer Service to reset your activations.

Transferring your downloaded eBook to an eReader device (Nook, Sony Reader, etc): Once you’ve downloaded your eBook, opened it with Adobe Digital Editions on your PC or Mac and entered your Adobe ID, you should be able to transfer it to your eReader device by connecting the device to your computer, then right-clicking on the eBook thumbnail in Adobe Digital Edition’s library view and selecting “download to device.” Consult your device’s manual for additional instructions.
