Most review copies are eBooks – how fast!
A review copy request is most likely to be fulfilled as an eBook on VitalSource rather than a print product, unless no eBook is available. eBooks become available in as little as a few hours. Print products will take between 7 and 10 days to arrive. To request a print copy, please contact the
Evolve Support Center or your
Education Solutions Consultant.
This is a Faculty Product!
Any student who attempts to request a review copy will be reported to the school's faculty and administration.
