System requirements:

To preview books or check them out on-line you will need Adobe SVG Viewer 3.0
To check books out to read off-line you will need Adobe Reader 6.0

For full functionality you need to be running Windows 98 or greater and Internet Explorer 4.0 or greater with SVG Viewer and Adobe Reader 6.0 installed. With other browsers on Windows you should be able to check out and download books to read off-line as long as you have Adobe Reader 6.0.
With Mac OS 9, Internet Explorer and SVG viewer you can preview and read on-line. With Mac OS 10.2.2 or greater and Adobe Reader 6.0 you can check out and download books to read off-line, preview only works for the few titles that do not require SVG Viewer.
