Help: How do I use BookRabbit?

We're giving away 1,000 free books - upload your bookshelf today!

*New BookRabbiters only - starting 30 June 2008 until we run out of books! For full terms and conditions see here.

So how do I get my free book?

Step 1: Register with BookRabbit.com

Go to our registration page and complete the form. Once you've registered, don't forget to submit and register a  default postal address.

Step 2: Upload a picture of your bookshelf

You can use our Advanced uploader to locate, format and upload a bookshelf image for you. Your web browser may ask you to install a plugin; you’ll need to agree to installation to continue.

Alternatively, you could try our Basic uploader which can accept images if they are:

• in JPEG/JPG format
• up to 4 MB (4096 KB) in file size, or up to 2880 x 2880 pixels image resolution
  

Step 3: Tag your bookshelf

You need to tag at leat five books to qualify. If you tag more than five that's OK because it gives us a better idea of what free book to send you.

Bookshelf images which have been uploaded to your profile can be accessed, viewed and edited on Your bookshelf page.

To start tagging your image click the Edit button next to the appropriate thumbnail image.

The editing tool requires a recent version of Adobe Flash Player so you may need to agree to install it or upgrade your currently installed version.

You’ll see a set of icons below the bookshelf image. These allow you to zoom in and out (using the magnifying glass),move the image (using the hand), and select individual titles (using the pencil). You can also switch to a fullscreen view, or delete the current selection.

To select and tag a title use the pencil to create a yellow rectangular outline around the outside of your book.
Once outlined, use the form to search the catalogue for a match, and then click the Select book button.

Step 4: Submit your address

If you haven't already, go to your account page and enter your default address details. If you don't, we won't know who or where to send your book to.
