"It was great to be able to find the books I needed for my classes in one place and not have to buy them, but rent them! Very simple process!"
"No issues at all. It synchronize flawless with desktop and iPhone. I can make notes highlighting and off line too. Everything works for me.

"I have used Vitalsourse Bookshelf through my BSN and now my DNP. I love that I can read my books where ever I am without hauling them all around. I am also an audio learner and listen to my books (when driving, etc.) I am a huge advocate for e-books, especially through Vitalsource Bookshelf."
"Easy to follow instructions "
"I have used vital source now for 2 semesters in both a Communications course and now for Biology. The format and audio support provided with the E-text allows for simplicity and greater productivity on the go! I’ll listen between classes or on a walk or drive and the easy reading format allows me to read on the road! My only constructive comment would be to change the voice for audio or provide options to. The voice provided can make it difficult to listen for longer periods of time (it’s very robotic). Hope this will change soon! Best El"
"I've had nothing but excellent experiences with VitalSource. My textbooks are affordable (due to time restricted options equivalent to checking out a book from the library). "
"Don’t want to spend a ton of money on books I’ll never use again so have the option to rent a digital copy is great. "
"I’ve enjoyed Vital Source for a few years now. I wish that the audio reading function was more logical. When the voice reads out the subtitles and page numbers, my train of thought is disrupted. Also, I wish there were more books to choose from. I failed to find two textbooks I was looking for. However, the UI is very intuitive. The books have high quality resolution. "
"I appreciate the accessibility options provided in this app. I have eye damage that makes it difficult for me to read for long periods. This app helps me stay caught up on my reading assignments with the read aloud option. "
"I accidentally made two seperate accounts but I wanted my books to be in one place. The representative was quickly about the merge my accounts and take care of the issue. I also appreciated the longer customer services hours bc the issue occured out of standard 9-5 business hours. "
"Had an issue with a digital rental and they were able to refund me despite being outside the parameters for refunds."
"I am not an e-text person, but vital source makes the purchase and use of the text very easily. "
"It only took a few minutes for me to receive my book in my inbox!"
"For refund, the respond was so quick. I did appreciate vitalsource services. Please keep up the good work!!"
"I haven’t had any issues with ordering and using the ebooks. Good prices and easy to use!"
