Who can use this
An active ARC access entitlement for the campaign.
Before you start
ARC access is personal and protected. Do not share reading addresses, files or private campaign material.
Steps
- Open ARC Hub → Reading, or return to the approved campaign page.
- Find the approved access marked available or accessed.
- Select Open protected ARC. If a valid reading session already exists, select Continue protected reading.
- Use the table of contents or Previous and Next controls to move through the book.
- Use Bookmark, Appearance or Fullscreen when you need those reading controls.
- Close the reader when finished; My Blurbly records your progress so you can resume later.
- Before opening the file you may withdraw unused access. After you start, use Did not finish if you cannot complete it. Access closes after the campaign feedback deadline.
What happens next
The authorized reader opens the protected book and can resume the same reading session later.
Common problems
- Protected reading is not available.
- Check that the approved access is marked available or accessed and the feedback deadline has not passed. Submitted, declined, withdrawn, DNF, revoked or expired records do not grant file access.
- The reader cannot load the book.
- Return to the ARC Shelf and retry once. If it continues, contact support with the campaign title—never send the protected file or address.
