I'd like to put Browse Inside on my Web page. How do I go about this?
We’ve made it easy to pick up and place digital book content on your Web site. If Browse Inside is enabled for the book you want, "Put this Book on Your Site" appears at top right. Simply copy the code you see in the box and paste it into your source document. If "Put this Book on Your Site" is not on the page for the book you want, Browse Inside functionality is not yet available. We hope you'll bookmark the page and try again later.

Is special permission required to put the Browse Inside for a book on my Web site?
No special permission is required. Browse Inside doesn't show you all content of a book. The Table of Contents and front matter, the first three pages of the first few chapters, and front and back covers are usually included. It is intended to give readers a sense of the writing and what the book is about and is comparable to what you'd sample in a bookstore.

It may take a few minutes to install the first time, so please be patient. Browse Inside opens a new window. Sometimes that window is hidden by other open applications on your desktop. Also, make sure pop-up blocking is disabled for Zondervan.com.
