If you are using Engage to buy ebooks for students, teachers, or for your library, you may find titles that are unavailable, this is due to territory sales restrictions set by the publisher.


Territory sales restrictions exist due to the legal agreements publishers have with authors, agents, and even other publishers. These define what content may be sold, and where it may be sold. If you are unable to buy a particular ebook in your region, it's likely because of these restrictions.


The availability of a title is managed by the publisher. If you believe a title should be available in your region please reach out to our marketplace team to raise your request with the publisher.


Publishers update their titles on the Snapplify platform frequently both in terms of pricing and availability. This means that a title may become available or unavailable as a result of these updates.


If you have purchased a title and it is now unavailable in your region, your existing license will be unaffected but you may not be able to purchase additional copies of this title.
