Give Review Access
We provide Review Access to any instructor or other reviewer that will be provided the book for free.
System upgrades for this deal have turned off the easier review request interface, but it is still possible while it is being rebuilt.
For now, to provide review access, you’ll need to create a new user (if they are not in the system), and then add the book to their bookshelf.
To Create a New user:
Click the Users tab
Click New User
Enter the details below:
Item | Required | Notes |

Yes | The email of the user. A confirmation email will be automatically sent to the user, prompting them to confirm this address. Emails need to be unique in the system. | |
