Before your institution or parents can purchase hardcopy books via Engage, the following setup must be completed:

  • Update your hardcopy settings in Engage. This indicates that you want the option to select hardcopy books when setting up your prescribed book orders. 
  • Set a preferred bookseller. This is the bookseller who you would like to work with to supply and deliver the books to your school.
  • Meet with your Snapplify rep and preferred bookseller to finalize the remaining Procurement settings

Further Assistance

If your preferred bookseller is not listed, or you need Snapplify to appoint a bookseller for you:


It is essential that you set a preferred bookseller with Snapplify before proceeding with hardcopy orders. 

Once your institution's hardcopy book purchases are enabled in Engage, you'll need to include shipping information (e.g. whether there are shipping fees involved).


Snapplify Authorised Booksellers who've been invited to your institution's Engage platform can also help you to manage your orders by setting up prescribed lists, linking user groups to prescribed lists, and generating book quotes.
