Plain answers

Common questions

What is an eBook?

A digital book file you download to your phone, tablet, computer, or e-reader. No printed book is shipped.

Which file should I use?

Use EPUB where offered — it resizes for any screen and reads best on phones and e-readers. PDF preserves the fixed page layout (useful on a desktop or for printing).

Where is my download link?

Sent by email to the address used at checkout, and saved permanently to your Irving Books account at /account/downloads.

I lost my download — can I get it again?

Yes. Sign in to your account, or ask the Librarian on any page of the site to resend the link — just paste your order email.

Can I read offline?

Yes. Once downloaded the file is yours; works offline forever. No internet connection needed after download.

Is there DRM?

No. Our eBooks are DRM-free. Download them, keep personal backups, and move them between your own devices without being locked to one app.

Helping someone with a download?

Digital purchases are easiest when the reader buys with their own email, so the files stay in their Irving Books account. If you already bought a download for someone else, email us and we'll help get it to the right place.
