Sharing Volunteer Reviews

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

Sharing Volunteer Reviews

Post by Gingerbo0ks »

What's the rules for sharing our own volunteer reviews (not "Official Reviews") on other sites?

Are we allowed to copy our whole review onto sites like goodreads, or our own blog? (providing we include a link back to OBC)

Or does this work like official reviews whereby it depends on the review and we should message and ask Scott first?

The rules are the same as for official reviews. You are not allowed to copy your whole review and have to submit a new one. You can submit a link to your review, though.
The review is exclusive to OnlineBookClub.org, meaning you cannot post it on another website. If you have a blog or personal website, we hope you post a link to the review on your website, or you can feel free to write a different review of the book on your website, or summarize the review in different words on your website.
