Purchase Collection I

ACM Books will be priced affordably for institutions to maximize the accessibility of all titles published in the series. All pricing is based on an “ownership model” that provides “archival rights” for customers purchasing the entire collection of ACM Books with the ability to locally host individual titles for internal use, at the discretion of the purchasing institution.

In 2014, ACM Books will launch Collection I, which will consist of 25 books published across a wide range of topics in computer science. When an institution purchases Collection I, access will be turned on in the ACM Digital library for all books published as of that date in Collection I. Institutions purchasing Collection I will also have the option of accessing books published in the Series from Morgan & Claypool’s platform at no additional charge. As new titles are published inside the ACM Digital Library, those titles will be accessible to all users within the institution’s IP authenticated domain.

For Individuals, ACM Books is not yet available for purchase. Upon publication of the first titles in the series, ACM will provide ordering information and links to the appropriate online channels to order individual ACM Books titles.
