Getting a message from Books24x7 saying that you need to log in through your library?

Please try this workaround:

  1. Go to the Books24x7 main page and log in, if prompted. This will set a Books24x7 cookie in your browser.
  2. The links to Books24x7 in your classroom should now work.
  3. Repeat this process if you get a Books24x7 error message again later.

Also, you might want to report this issue to your instructor.  


Instructors:
This error happens because an incorrectly formatted link was used in the classroom.  You can get a correctly formatted link by clicking the Share icon, shaped like an envelope, in the Tools section at the top of the book or chapter you want to link to. The 

Books24x7 share icon is under the search bar, just above the book title. It is often the fifth icon in the list of Tools. It is shaped like an envelope.

The correct link will be in the box of text at the bottom of the subsequent page titled '--- Link to content in Books24x7(R) ---.'
