The CSA Database on CD-ROM is available for purchase at any time. The Quarterly Issue product allows you to subscribe to receive an updated CD-ROM each quarter that contains data accurate up to the end of the previous quarter. For example, the CD-ROM sent to you in July will contain data accurate up through June 30th. Once every three months, you will receive a disc containing the database and a search program, which you can install on your computer. The subscription is valid for one calendar year from the purchase date. You may continue to use the disc after your subscription runs out, but you will not receive further updates until your subscription is renewed.

Your subscription type is based on the number of concurrent users. Concurrent users are users who are all using the search program at the same time. You may install the search program and database on your local network so that it can be accessed from multiple computers. If, for example, 5 people will need to be able to access the search program at the same time, then you must purchase a license for 5 Users. If only one person will be using it at any given time, you may purchase a Single User subscription. (You will receive only one copy of the CD each quarter, regardless of the number of concurrent users on your subscription.)

The CD-ROM is not Macintosh-compatible.
