A short guide which will be especially useful for readers who have not used digital calendars and journals before. Thanks for the tips!

This user guide is a life-saver. I have been interested in trying digital journaling for quite some time but had no idea where to start. This was a great tool to get me started without getting overwhelmed with all the app possibilities.

Very helpful guide on using the NetGalley reading journal user guide. Thank you NetGalley and we are bookish!

Easy to follow instructions.
But unfortunately the good notes app won’t allow the file to be imported as it is too large on the free version. So I just screenshot the pages and will edit where I can.

A great user friendly guide to getting stayed with the Reading Journal. It gives easy to follow directions on which apps to use and how to edit the Reading Journal.

Navigating new tools can be overwhelming, but the User Guide is here to save the day. Packed with tips and tricks, it walks you through every step of downloading, editing, and fully utilizing our journal.

The user guide helped me set up the NetGalley Reading Journal on my iPad. I am enjoying using this for my personal book tracking and note taking. The user guide was easy to follow, informative, and answered the questions I had.

This guide was very helpful in learning how to use the journal. The directions for downloading it for iOS and Android were helpful.

as a first time digital book journaller, i really appreciated this user-friendly guide, that covers all faqs and set-up instructions!! i'd definitely recommend to someone starting any digital book journal and cannot wait to get started. thank you it netgalley for providing both the user guide and the journal for no cost to users!!

Great, it was a big help with the reading journal. This will be my second year completing the journal.

Helpful reading journal user guide! Check the PDF reader/editor you want to use, though - the free recommendation in the book for Windows (Xoxo) now charges.

A useful companion to the reading journal and give some extra assistance, specifically when setting up the journal.
Would recommend if you have any questions or problems with the journal

Thank you for the included tips! I'm going to try using this with xodo as suggested, I'm excited! I also appreciate the freebie stickers. I've never used a digital book journal before so this is super helpful.

This is so helpful! I knew I wanted to use the journal but had quite a few questions about how to make it work for me and this guide more than covers everything I need to know. Thank you, NetGalley!

Very helpful. I was able to find Good Notes and start using the journal for 2025. I love the new colors and hope to match my pen colors throughout the year. Thanks for this.

A comprehensive overview of the journal’s features, with clear and straightforward instructions on how to download and make the most of it.

This was very helpful and informative for the reading journal. This made downloading and uploading to my iPad to use very simple. Thank you!

Incredibly helpful guide for the reading journal! I’m excited to dive into the journal and use it for my reading journey this year.

It's very clear and concise. I would have appreciated a note on how to add the bonus pages, but aside from that it cleared my doubts.

This user guide was more than helpful and easy to understand. Its explains the basics, gives you added tips and additional sources if more information is needed. Thank you!
