As a first time Netgalley user, this toolkit has given me the confidence to start writing effective reviews.
It is a quick read while still being detailed enough to answer all of my questions related to the review process.
I would recommend this guide to any new Netgalley users as well as those looking to write better reviews. Thank you to We Are Bookish for the free resource.

Very helpful toolkit that helped me create my profile as I was struggling to write my bio and putting it together in a way that would be helpful for Publishers!

This is a great introduction to the platform and certainly answers all the questions one might have (and also ones you might not have thought about). I enjoyed the colourful setting & hyperlinks to other sources, which is very helpful if you want to explore some topics even further. I'll definitely be saving this one to come back to some tips in the future.

This was a very helpful tutorial for beginners on how to set up and use NG. I was able to adjust some of my own settings and review formats with these tips.

Very easy to follow and extremely resourceful. Kept my attention well and had a lot of pointers. I have a better understanding on the structure that is expected from reviews. I’m new to the ARC reader world so it was nice to have tips and tricks.

NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit provided a comprehensive overview of what NetGalley is, how to request books, and provided a sample of how to write a book review. It also went over how to tailor your NetGalley profile based on type of account. Everything was explained succinctly. This ToolKit is a good reference guide for someone just starting out with their Bookish journey or who just needs another reminder of what the standards are.

A very useful guide for using NetGalley, with practical tips and links I’ll likely refer to again. Thanks to the customer service for sending this link over! :)

An extremely helpful guide to using Netgalley! Lots of useful tips and link which I will be referring back to.

An extremely helpful guide to help with getting to know Netgalley! Definitely wish I had found out about this earlier.

This is a fantastic resource for anyone just starting out! The format is clear, concise, and beginner-friendly. It introduced tips I hadn’t considered and shared insights I wasn’t aware of. I really appreciate having access to something so useful at the beginning of this journey.

Very helpful information for a beginner! Easy to read format, and to the point! This offered some tips I hadn’t thought of and information I did not know. I am grateful this resource is available to somebody just getting started on their journey here!

NetGalley 101! A good intro to profiles, reviews, and everything else you’d need to start reviewing on NetGalley.

This toolkit gives advice on how to navigate NetGalley's website, as well as the best way to approach reviews. It is structured in a more fun way, with the pages being colored and text in large font over top of images like ripped out notebook paper.
I found that this was quite a useful guide, especially regarding how to approach reviews, and I hope to implement the advice given in its pages.

Every reviewer should read this handy guide to NetGalley. I wish I had stumbled across it before I started requesting and reviewing books but it will help me going forward. Thank you for this free resource.

Genuinely super helpful, thank you! I didn’t know about this resource before starting, so it’s nice to have a guide I can refer back to when I need guidance. And I will be using the profile tips to refine my bio now - that’s always my Achilles heel!

This guide is very well laid out. It has helped me make changes to my profile as well as learned some new aspects I didn't know about.
I appreciate the work they put into this and find it extremely helpful for new reviewers kn Netgalley.
I recommend everyone read this new here or just a refresher.

The NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit is extremely useful! I use this not only for my ARC reviews but for my normal reviews as well!

The talk is very helpful and I will be referring to it over and over again. As a new reviewer, it really helped understand the process, helped write my first review, and what to expect going forward.

I'm the kind of person who almost always skips the instruction manual and prefers to learn by jumping in, but I'd read more manuals if they were like this toolkit: visually engaging, to-the-point, and full of information I didn't know I needed. I feel better prepared to get started on NetGalley, and would recommend that anyone looking to better understand this platform give it a read.

Great guide to netgalley and social media platform for the same.
NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit is an excellent, accessible resource—especially for those looking to up their reviewing game or just getting started. The pdf is very User-friendly, visually appealing, packed with actionable tips and resources. Great for building confidence, refining your approach, and staying organized, its also categorized and broken down to make it more accessible.
