The digital version supports a single user only. If two or more people in an organization want to read the report, they must purchase multiple reports. We offer discounts when purchasing multiple copies at one time. Many individuals and organizations choose to purchase both the digital and printed/bound versions as a bundle. The printed/bound version can be loaned or included in a library, but it cannot be copied.

The digital version of the report is a single-user license, so it cannot be placed on a server or shared device of any type.
