Rebates
We give high rebates for students and for researchers from developing countries. See in the table above at Students.
Students should send in a proof of current student status.
People, which are living in a country listed as developing country by the European Union receive the same rebate as students do.


Contributors receive 10 free references for any new reference they deliver. Please read about the special procedure.

CD-ROM
At the end of the year we will produce a CD-ROM, which will be available for free for our all subscribers paying more than 35 US $ a year. All other subscribers can buy the CD-ROM for a reduced price of 20 US$ (including shipping).
The CD will contain:

• The complete marine mammal bibliography for the year 2006.
• A large PDF file with all the references of the year in order by names of the first author with a subject-index and an author-index.
• A statistic about how many papers appeared in which journal and which authors have published a certain amount of papers. Important information for your own publishing decisions and career contacts.

The price for non-subscribers will be 50 US $.

Copyright notice:
We have made this service as customer friendly and cheap as possible. So you shouldn't have a reason to steal our work by copying the bibliographies to your friends and colleagues. If you find a reason despite of that, please let us know and we can work that out.
This service is depending on a certain number of customers. If this number is not reached this service will be ceased after all subscriptions have been fulfilled.
