Downloading Adobe Digital Editions (reads .acsm files)
Adobe Digital Editions is a free program that is used to authorize eBooks using your Adobe ID.
1. Visit http://www.adobe.com/products/digital-editions/download.html and download Adobe Digital Editions.
2. Follow the installation steps and run the program. Create a new Adobe ID or log in with your existing account.*
3. From the EBSCO Database entry in your browser, click the "Download (offline)" link to download the .ascm file.
4. Open the file with Adobe Digital Editions.
*If you choose to authorize without an ID, ADE will enable reading of the book only on your computer. You will not be able to read it on other eReader devices or other computers (or the same computer if you re-install). If you don’t plan on moving your books to other computers (or re-installing), this approach will work for you.
