Frequently asked questions

Why do I have to pay for online access to the Report?

The Report costs ALGA a considerable amount of money to pull together each year. The low price ($200 + GST) makes it affordable to most and goes a small way to enabling ALGA to continue publishing the report.

How long does my access last?

ALGA will maintain the Report indefinitely on its website.

Do I have to pay if I am a student?

Yes. For students, we suggest buying a single user licence or accessing the Report via a public or education library.

What are the terms of use for libraries?

For public libraries, see the Library licence definition above. Education and corporate libraries need to buy an Organisation licence.
