Reading textbooks online and offline

When you have access to a textbook, you can read in any web browser on a desktop or laptop computer by clicking on the Read Online button. This will open the ereader in a new reader. To access customisable features such as offline/mobile reading, adding annotations, adding bookmarking and printing/copying you will need to register and login to a free account.

Use the 'Add to Offline Bookshelf' button to make the title available in your mobile application.

See our FAQs for further information or reach out to our support teams.
