Easily find information

The optimised search and filter categories help you to quickly and easily find the information and publications you need. You can search by publication title, publishers, language and book category, for example, 'Safety/SOLAS'. There is no need for the internet to search and access publications on SeaReader - you can search, access and get permits for books either online or offline. The only time the internet is needed is during installation.
