This PDF download was just what I needed as I updated my profile after a 2-year hiatus. The BAT is a quick read and easy to navigate. As a visual learner I found it both efficient and fun-as it is not written in text but as a collection of infographics. Well done We Are Bookish! And thank you.

This guide was very helpful to me as a fairly new and learning member.
In the toolkit were some great tips and  pointers, I even learned some things I didn't know!

Much thanks to the publisher for the complimentary e-book copy I recieved to review through Netgalley. I was not required to give a positive review, and the thoughts are my own.

I’m taking first steps in my NetGalley journey and reading this toolkit was extremely helpful and made me consider my next steps carefully. The toolkit is a thorough, easy-to-read guide, which I can recommend especially to a newcomer like myself, but could benefit a more experienced NetGalley user by reminding of best practices.
