How do I request an inspection copy?

Please go through the below steps to request a free inspection copy.

1. Find the book for your course

You can search for books in a number of ways on our Sage website: use the search bar in the top-right corner of every page, click on Disciplines in the top left of every page and select your subject area, or view our latest titles and select the book(s) you wish to inspect. You are able to inspect up to 6 free inspection copies in a year. For more information, please see How do I know if a book is available as an Inspection Copy?

2. Click on the Inspection Copy/Request Review Access button on the right-hand side of the book's product page

Select either Digital or Print Copy and click on the button to add the book to your inspection copy basket. Only books available for inspection have this button. If the book you're interested in doesn't have either of these order options, please contact your local sales consultant as they may be able to provide an inspection copy after consultation.

3. Log in or set up your account

Enter existing details or set up a Sage account to receive inspection copies. For more information, please see How do I create an Instructor's account?

4. Tell us about your courses

Please tell us about the institution you teach at and the courses you are considering the inspection copy for. We also need a delivery address to send the book to you.

5. Complete your request

Check your details and delivery address are correct then confirm your request.

6. Submit your feedback and publish your review

Once you have received and reviewed your inspection copy please submit your feedback online and add your comments to our online peer review system.

Sage is the first academic publisher to share independent customer reviews and feedback online, and we feel that encouraging two way communication with customers and colleagues in the academic world is integral to producing quality content. You can publish comments online for inspection copies you have requested via your Sage online account.
