Instructors

If your institution’s library has given you access to our digital textbooks, you can read them either on your web browser or by downloading the Cambridge Spiral app.

To read online, log in to your institutional/library access in the normal way - this is commonly handled via IP range (when on campus) or via remote access such as Athens, Shibboleth and EZProxy. Then go to the Cambridge Aspire website and you will see the 'Read Online’ button appear on books that you have access to.

To access personalised features such as highlighting, note-taking and bookmarks, you will need to create an individual user account on the Cambridge Aspire website. After logging in to your institution/library access, open the Cambridge Aspire website and log in with your individual account.

To read offline, download our Cambridge Spiral app and log in using your Cambridge Aspire website details.

Remember, your institution must have access to our textbooks for you to read them. Contact your library for more information. If you can't access specific content, check if your institution is subscribed to the title and contact our technical support team.

If you access our content via your IP address or a service such as Athens or Shibboleth, you will only need to log in once. When using an individual account, you can choose to have your details stored for up to 30 days by selecting the ‘Remember me’ option when you log in.
