The SEA Library allows you to download articles 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so that you can access your independent boating information without delay.

We do not post hard copies of individual SEA Library articles, as you can download these articles immediately and print them out yourself at home.

However, books, magazines, videos and other physical items that are ordered, are posted through Australia Post.

How to BUY a SEA Library Article

Browse through the SEA Library, select the article you wish to purchase by clicking "Add To Cart" (the shopping trolley pic). Continue browsing - you can add many articles, books and other items to your cart.

Select "To Checkout" when you are happy with your selection.
A form appears which asks for your name, address and credit card details, etc. When you have completed this form (you must enter info in all grey boxes) press "Continue" and then "Confirm Order". The screen goes blank for a moment then . . . if your credit card is approved then a TAX Invoice will appear on screen.
Select the "Print" icon this will open a printer friendly version of your tax invoice, clicking the printer icon on this page or choosing "File" then "Print" from the browser menu will print the tax invoice.

The Tax Invoice will print. On it is your user name and password.

How to Download a Purchased SEA Library Article

Print the Tax Invoice (If you haven't printed your TAX Invoice read the paragraph (5) above.)
Go to this link http://www.seamedia.com.au/login/ which takes you to our log-in page. (Or http://www.seamedia.com.au and select log-in on the top menu bar).
Type in your user name and password (these are on your Tax Invoice)
You will see a list of the articles you purchased which are ready to download.
Click "Download PDF" next to the article you want to download. If you have more than one article, then just do this one article at a time. The screen will go blank whilst the Acrobat Reader program opens. Next the article will appear on your screen.

(NOTE: If you have a slow connection this may take some minutes)
When the article shows on your screen you need to press "Save" (top left of your screen) or on some computers "File" then "Save".

This saves the article to your home computer. I usually save it to desktop, so it is easy to find - if you wish, you can then rename the file, too.
Find the article on your computer, and print it out at home.

Please Note: Articles you have purchased will show here (ready for you to download to your computer) for 48 hours after you purchased the article.
