Microsoft Select Prices
New 2007 ISBE Microsoft Select Contract in Effect
There is a new Microsoft Select Volume Licensing Agreement in place for the Illinois State Board of Education effective from March 1, 2007 through February 28, 2010. This Agreement covers public schools only. Non-public schools may be able to sign their own Select Agreements or use other Microsoft Academic Licensing Programs like Microsoft Academic Open License Program (MOLP) and Microsoft School Agreement to purchase software licensing for their schools.
All Microsoft Select License-Software Assurance Product bundles purchased under this Agreement will allow you to upgrade to Microsoft license versions released by Microsoft prior to February 28, 2010. You may purchase Software Assurance in a bundle with any new product licenses that you purchase. If you want to upgrade the licenses you already own and don't have Software Assurance you will need to buy a new license in order to upgrade for all Microsoft products except for Operating System licenses that are Upgrade Licenses only.
Any license you purchase without Software Assurance will never expire. You will continue to own the right to deploy the software for that specific version or prior versions of the software even after the Select Agreement itself expires in February 2010.
Additional Information on ordering Licenses Software or Software Assurance can be obtained from Juana Younce at Bell Industries at 1-866-287-3046 or you can email jyounce@bellind.com
