------------------
It is indeed legal for a software publisher to require educational (or other multi-users) to pay a larger licensing fee. Oh, sure, they'll probably never catch you, but that's not the point.



Is this true even if the software will never be installed on more than one machine at a time? Certainly I am aware of multi-user licencing when the software is in use by more than one user simultaneously, but in this case we're talking about a lending library, not stocking a lab.
