Academic Reader

The Academic Reader app is an eBook reader for all digital content using the Glassboxx Academic Reader platform, adding your purchases to the digital bookshelf, showcasing other academic titles within the Discover area, and enabling a seamless reading experience.

The app has no password on login: simply type in the email address used to buy the book and enter the verification code sent to your email. Your purchased content can be found in the “My Books” area of the app. An internet connection is required to download the content.

No password required – you can either use our social sign on with Apple or Google, or simply log in with the email address used to buy the book and enter the verification code sent to your email – and your content awaits in the ‘My books’ area of the app, with formats clearly labelled. With the content in the cloud, downloading requires an initial internet connection, but once downloaded, your books can be enjoyed to your heart’s content.
