Safari is pretty cool – for a fixed fee get access to ALL technology books you can imagine.  I love it.  I have always hated actually buying books since I know I will never open them again after a month or two.

Heard about a really neat way to get this for free:

  1. Signup online for an eLibrary Card from the Boston Public Library.  This is really a big user id and a password.
  2. Do a Google search for “Boston Public Library Safari”.  The first hit is an “electronic” books resource page for BPL.
  3. Click on the “Safari Online” link.
  4. Enter your eLibrary Card number.
  5. You now have complete access to Safari sans bookmarks, favorites and downloads.
