Please note that if you have multiple copies of Office with Bookshelf '94 in CD-ROM form and you are counting these copies as licenses for your use of Office with Bookshelf '94 over the network, then you must archive these CD-ROM copies and not make any other use of them for as long as you are counting them as network copies.

How to Use Office with Bookshelf '94 on a Network

WARNING: This installation procedure will allow you to have Bookshelf integration, but requires approximately 73 MB of space on the hard drive of each workstation if you choose the "Run From CD" option. Other installation options can reduce the hard drive space required, for example if you select the Custom/Complete option, and only select a few of the components. A normal Workstation installation of Microsoft Office does not install Bookshelf, but will require minimal space on the hard drive. Additionally, video and sound will be slower running Bookshelf from a network drive since it must travel over the network.
