Users get a taste of your book—but only a taste. We scan the full text of your book because we want people to be able to search all its content. But users can only access a limited portion of any given book each month. They can also only browse two pages backward and forward from any page where their search term appeared.

We understand that your books are valuable, so we treat them as though they were our own. All the books you send us will be hosted on Google servers and protected by the same security as Google.com’s search data.

To further protect your book content, printing and image copying functions are disabled on all Google Books pages.
