Pricing will vary depending on the amount of books, the subscription length, and the amount of schools/students.
How do I add books to my plan?
You can add books to your plan by going to the My Plan tab under My Account and clicking the "Add Books" link. You must be the license administrator and have an active plan to perform this action.
What is the difference between the Sign In Link and the Group Access Link?
Use the default Sign In Link if students have individual accounts. Each user would sign in with their own username and password.
Use the Group Access Link if students do not have individual accounts. Each user would sign in using the same Group Password.
The Group Password and Group Access Link can be found under the My Plan tab on the My Account page. You must be a license administrator to access this tab.
