The vast majority of new AASHTO publications are available digitally (we do have some older items, as well as PE Exam items, in hardcopy). The library is in charge of receiving these e-publications. which are available on Sharepoint.

How to Access

• You must have Adobe on your computer. These PDFs will not open in an internet tab

• Download the FileOpen plugin in order to access these PDFs

• Once you have both of these, you can download the PDF from Sharepoint by right clicking and selecting "download." 

• Go to your downloads in file explorer, right click the file you need, and select "open in Adobe" 

• A dialog box will appear when the file opens, prompting you to login

  • Email: kathleen.crabb@dc.gov

  • Password: tranlib

• Now you should have access to the document! 

• As we only have 5 licenses (which means only 5 users may have the documents open at once) please close-out the PDF when you are done using it
