Downloading your eBook
*Note: Downloading your book from the server requires an active internet connection*
Bookshelf's eBooks need to be downloaded to your computer. The file size of a textbook can range from a few MB to 1GB depending on the type of book, size of a book, and contents of the eBooks. Once you have successfully downloaded the eBooks to your computer you do not need to be connected to the internet to view it again. Bookshelf has the ability to pause and resume downloads. Speeds for downloading eBooks will vary based on the size of a book being downloaded and internet connection.
eVantage eBooks are activated with a redemption code. If you have a Redemption code you will need to activate it before you can download your book.
