Sec. 54.513  Resale and transfer of services.

    (a) Prohibition on resale. Eligible services purchased at a discount 
under this subpart shall not be sold, resold, or transferred in 
consideration of money or any other thing of value.
    (b) Permissible fees. This prohibition on resale shall not bar 
schools, school districts, libraries, and library consortia from 
charging either computer lab fees or fees for classes in how to navigate 
over the Internet. There is no prohibition on the resale of services 
that are not purchased pursuant to the discounts provided in this 
subpart.
    (c) Eligible services and equipment components of eligible services 
purchased at a discount under this subpart shall not be transferred, 
with or without consideration of money or any other thing of value, for 
a period of three years after purchase, except that eligible services 
and equipment components of eligible services may be transferred to 
another eligible school or library in the event that the particular 
location where the service originally was received is permanently or 
temporarily closed. If an eligible service or equipment component of a 
service is transferred due to the permanent or temporary closure of a 
school or library, the transferor must notify the Administrator of the 
transfer, and both the transferor and recipient must maintain detailed 
records documenting the transfer and the reason for the transfer for a 
period of five years.
