The publisher Pearson has changed its position on the use of its ebooks on Dawsonera. As of Monday 12 January, Pearson ebooks will only be available to read online, not to download to your device. If the ebook you are using is affected, you will see a message like this:
This change is not something that we are able to control. However, it only affects around 180 ebooks out of the over 6000 we have accessible on Dawsonera.

Libraries would love to. But our academics keep putting them on their reading lists.
