As part of a COVID educator support initiative, Esri Press has made an arrangement with VitalSource to make Esri Press e-books available for free to Canadian students through their new VitalSource Helps program.
- General information for getting started can be found here: https://get.vitalsource.com/vitalsource-helps.
- An FAQ for students/educators can be found here: https://support.vitalsource.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044467674-Student-and-Instructor-Frequently-Asked-Questions.
- Students will have access to up to 7 titles of their choice (from any publisher, but a total of 7 titles).
- Access is provided through April 30, 2020. After that, the e-book(s) will disappear from their Bookshelf library. Notes will still be downloadable.
- Students have to sign up with VitalSource and access e-books through Bookshelf using their school-assigned email address.
- After April 30, faculty will continue to be able to request up to 3 e-copies of Esri Press books per term, for consideration for course evaluation
