I return to this title periodically as a reference because I’m still not 100% savvy with NetGalley, but it did ‘get me started’
A great resource for new reviewers on NetGalley or any platform. Very helpful with a lot of tips. Thank you NetGalley!
A great resource on getting started here on NetGalley. Easy to understand and a wonderful way to get going writing reviews.
Nice resource with practical tips and application! Would happily recommend to others getting started on Netgalley.
Super helpful and lots of great tips. As a professional reader I still gained a few things that I can use going forward. Thank you so much for putting this together.
Helpful guide for getting started with NetGalley. Covers all the basics such as how to search for books, the request process, how to make your profile attractive to publishers etc.
I'm not a professional in the publishing world so it was really helpful to understand what publishers are looking for from ARC readers and how to put together a thoughtful but concise review.
Very cute and succinct little toolkit! There's a lot of really good information in here without it feeling super heavy. Definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to get into reviewing/advocating for advanced reader copies - or even for any book reviews in general!
This toolkit has a lot of really useful information when it comes to writing reviews and how to navigate NetGalley. I'll definitely be using it as I work to bring up my feedback ratio, especially!
I read it and it was very helpful on how to complete review on netgalley. The toolkit is useful and informative.
I found the Toolkit to be incredibly helpful and informative. It provides clear direction on posting reviews, social media tips, and helpful information to really heighten the reader's reviewing abilities. The information is eye catching and short enough to not feel overwhelming. I will definitely use some of what I learned to use in my own developing skills.
This is a really helpful tool kit provided by netgalley to get started using their platform and how best to achieve a great score and a great relationship with authors and publishers. Thank you netgalley. Very helpful.
This was a helpful and concise guide to help me start my journey of reviewing and recommending books. I was unaware of this toolkit when I was first introduced to the NetGalley system via an author I supported in an advance book release campaign. I made a lot of rookie mistakes that could have been avoided. Therefore, I recommend that this be provided to all new users of NetGalley upon their first login. There seem to be a few links that are no longer working right now, but it looks like there may be some subsequent releases with additional content specific to social media. Overall, this is a must-read for anyone on the NetGalley platform. The less-than-perfect rating is due to not being targeted to platform users as effectively as iI think it could have been.
As an avid reader and reviewer, I believe it is always helpful to continue one's education and learn new things constantly. It not only helps me stay on top of trends, but it keeps my mind strong. NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit did exactly that for me: continue to learn and grow. I often write reviews, and I'm on a few author's ARC lists. I always strive to write a thoughtful, engaging review that pulls others into it. I can see where my errors and strengths are now that I've read NetGalley's Advocate Toolkit. Now, I have a list of notes to gauge my next review and continue strengthening and growing my NetGalley profile/account.
I would recommend any reader, reviewer, or professional in the book industry to read NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit to learn the website, tips & tricks, and, most importantly, build a strong profile with the tools necessary to guide you to write strong reviews. It was a very informative tool to digest, and it took no time at all to read. The knowledge you gain is well worth it.
A toolkit for advocating for books is always a good thing. This was easy to use and made using Net Galley easier and more rewarding
Thank you for the PDF and for the opportunity to be an ARC reader! I appreciate the guidance with submitting and creating reviews for readers. I'm new to reading ARCs, so I definitely needed the extra leg up!
Love these toolkits that netgalley puts out. They are a lot of fun! Love that they've added more to do and fill out
I love this, it is such a great resource to use when first start reviewing. I wish it had been available when I first started.
This is definitely a helpful guide as you are first starting out on this sight as a review. Good information to be reviewed and come back to when needed.
thumbs up. this document was very helpful. not sure what else to say about it since it is an internal guide book and not intended for distribution beyond this platform.
I think this is a great resource to let NetGalley users know how to strengthen their reviews and what to include. It did feel a bit repetitive at times, but overall very helpful and a great resource.
