<dl>
<dt>Who is eligible to start a campaign or sell ebooks on Unglue.it?</dt>
<dd>To start a campaign, you need to be a verified rights holder who has signed a Platform Services Agreement with us.

{% if sublocation == 'b2u' or sublocation == 'all' %}
<dd>On every book page there is a More... tab. If you have a signed Platform Services Agreement on file, one of the options on the More... tab will be "Claim This Work". If you represent more than one rights holder, choose the correct one for this work and click "Claim".<br /><br />If you expect to see a "Claim" button and do not, either we do not have a PSA from you yet, or we have not yet verified and filed it. Please contact us at <a href="mailto:rights@gluejar.com">rights@gluejar.com</a>.</dd> {% include 'faq_b2u.html' %}
{% endif %}
<dt>Why should I claim my works?</dt> {% if sublocation == 't4u' or sublocation == 'all' %}
{% include 'faq_t4u.html' %}
<dd>You need to claim a work before you will be able to start a campaign for it. Additionally, we're adding features for verified rights holders which will help you show off your works and connect to your readers. Claiming your works will let you take advantage of these features in the future.</dd>
<dt>Can I have more than one campaign?</dt>
<dd>Yes!</dd>
<dt>Where can I find a campaign page?</dt>
<dd>If you're looking for a specific book, search for it. The book's page becomes a campaign page when its campaign starts. Your bookmarks and widgets for that book will still work.<br /><br />
If you want to find an interesting campaign and don't have a specific book in mind, see the Explore sidebar (on almost any page except the FAQs) for some of our favorites.</dd>
<dt>Why does it say a book's campaign has been suspended or withdrawn?</dt>
<dd>If there is a dispute between Gluejar and the book's rights holder, or if we discover evidence that a book's rights are in dispute after launching a campaign, it may be necessary for us to withdraw or suspend the campaign.</dd>
</dl>
<h4>Pledge Campaign Pages</h4>
<dl>
<dt>Can a campaign be edited after launching?</dt>
<dd>Yes. In fact, campaign managers are encouraged to update their supporters about the progress of the campaign. Note that the campaign's deadline cannot be changed and its target may not be increased, though it may be lowered.</dd>
<dt>Can Pledge Campaigns be edited after funding is completed?</dt>
<dd>Yes. Again, while the deadline cannot be changed and the threshold cannot be increased, campaign managers are encouraged to add thank-you messages for supporters and update them on the progress of ebook conversion (if needed).</dd>
<dt>What is a Pledge Campaign page?</dt>
<dd>When a book has an active ungluing campaign, its book page turns into its Pledge Campaign page. This means that, in addition to the standard book page information, it also features rewards for different pledge tiers; a Support button; and information supplied by the campaign manager (typically the author or publisher) about the book and the campaign.</dd>

Support the books you've loved and make them free to everyone.
</div>
<dl> <dl>
<dt>How does this work?</dt>
<dd>Pledge Campaigns are aimed at books that have already been published and have been read - and loved - by many. At some point they stop selling, except in used bookstores where the creators don't make a dime. A pledge campaign asks those who love the book to pledge their support together with other ungluers to buy out enough rights to make the ebook free. Think of it as a way to make the public domain happen sooner.</dd>
<dt>What the book I love doesn't have a campaign?</dt>
<dd>To show the creators of a book that there are people willing to support it, just "Fave" the book. If enough people show their support in this way, the creators will take notice. They may even offer "<a href="{% url faq_sublocation 'campaigns' 'premiums' %}">premiums</a>" to encourage you to pledge!</dd>
<dt>How do I pledge?</dt> <dt>How do I pledge?</dt>
<dd>There's a Support button on all Pledge Campaign pages, or you can just click on the premium you'd like to receive.

The more Unglue.it knows about you and your books, the faster your campaign can be up and running.<br /><br />
For example, it would help to have you tell us the following in your initial query:<br /><br />
<em>About your books:</em>
<ul class="bullets">
<li>Title(s) for which you hold the rights and which you might want to unglue. (ISBNs help too!)</li>
<li>How long have print and/or ebook editions of these titles been for sale?</li>
<li>Where are your books sold?</li>
<li>If your title went out of print, how many copies had it sold until then?</li>
<li>Have you self-published this title or other works?</li>
<li>Have you already applied a Creative Commons license to this work?</li>
</ul>
<em>Note: If you have an EPUB file ready to sell, you should use a "Buy to Unglue" campaign. If there is no ebook yet, you'll want to offer a "Pledge" campaign.</em> And if you've already put a Creative Common License on the Book, you can use a "Thanks for Ungluing" Campaign.<br /><br />
<em>About the ebook rights:</em>
<ul class="bullets">
<li>If you are the copyright holder, have ebook rights reverted to you or have you requested reversion from the original publisher? </li>
<li>If you are a publisher, do you have the right to publish using a Creative Common license?</li>
<li> Who distributes your ebooks for online sales to individuals and via 3rd party platforms to libraries for lending?</li>
<li>If there is an ebook how long is has it been for sale? </li>
<li>Are ebooks available to Libraries for lending?</li>
</ul><br />
<em>About you as an author and marketer:</em>
<ul class="bullets">
<li>What social media (blog, Twitter, Facebook, Goodreads, etc.) do you currently use?</li>
<li>How have you worked with libraries to promote your books in the past?</li>
<li>Where do you think your key supporters will come from? -- a community of fans you're already in touch with, fans who read your genre, readers who have yet to discover your work, scholars or students, readers who support the open access movement or free culture?</li>
