Where can I download the AC 16 library?

When I bought AC 17, I did an upgrade from 15. I had never bought AC16.
Is there a way I can download the AC 16 library from the internet?

Evidently they have changed some of the library parts in 17 and I am having trouble with some of the parts not doing what they used to. I would like to see if I can use the AC 16 library parts instead.

Esp. D2 sliding 16

The reveal to wall face is not available in the AC17 part anymore & we lost some parametric settings.

Many more settings but the most useful ones are missing now...Ugh

Thanks

A few options:
1. Use the search feature in the Door Settings dialog box to connect to the BIM Components Portal.
2. Go to bimcomponents.com for a search.

...or if you need the entire library, AC 16 may be available as a download from your account at myarchicad.com ... unfortunately, you'd have to install the entire thing just to get the library, following this route.

Karl,

I don't see archicad 16 or the library on myarchicad.com. Only archicad 17, add ons for 17 and a group of other downloads which are unrelated to previous versions of AC...Thanks for steering me to the site though, I did not know about it.
