SIGGRAPH 2016 content is now available for free in the ACM Digital Library for a one-month period that began two weeks before the conference, and will end a week after it concludes. Following this one-month "free access" window, the content is available at no cost in perpetuity, exclusively through open access links on SIGGRAPH.org.

In addition, USB drives of conference content will be on sale at SIGGRAPH 2016. There are two USB drive options. One drive contains conference presentations, organized by program and session, and the second contains selected pieces from the Computer Animation Festival and Daytime Selects program. The drives cost $30 each and will be shipped in September.
