Online RDA Subscription Purchase

To purchase the RDA Toolkit online, click the “Buy” button below that matches the number of users you request. Once you have clicked “Accept” for the RDA Toolkit License agreement (PDF of license available below) and again for the subscription terms, your subscription request will be added to your shopping cart. The double-user offer discount will automatically be applied during the checkout process. During checkout, you also have the option to pay in any of the currencies listed. 24-48 hours after you complete the checkout process, the RDA Toolkit staff will contact you to confirm your order. If you had an open-access account, we will extend or reactivate that account rather than creating a new one. We will contact you if we have any questions about your open-access account. If you are not able to purchase online for any reason, please use the Manual RDA Toolkit Purchase option (details below).

Manual RDA Subscription Purchase

For subscription purchases for more than 20 users (40 with double-user offer), or if you are not able to purchase online for any reason, please follow these two steps.

  • First: read, sign, and fax or email a copy of the RDA Toolkit License to (312) 280-5280 or rdatoolkit@ala.org. Subscribers to the RDA Toolkit will need to sign the RDA Toolkit License Agreement. You do not need to sign and return the End User License Agreement (EULA)—it is here for your information. These licenses/agreements follow standard practice for this kind of product.

  • Second, place your order from anywhere in the world via the RDA Toolkit Support Center. Communicate the type of subscription and number of concurrent users you want to purchase. For information on subscription types and pricing, click here. We will contact you to confirm receipt of your request and your signed license, discuss payment options, create an invoice, and process your subscription. While your subscription is in process, we'll work with you on retaining seamless access.
