The rental queue is the list of books that you want to read. Books in the Rental Queue are given a Priority and delivered automatically according to the order you choose. If the Book you choose is in circulation or reserved by another member you will be shown the message “Reserved By Other”. You will get the Books which are shown as “Available”. Hence it is recommended that you keep at least 10 books in your Rental Queue, so that you always have something to read.
Information about your chosen books is displayed in "Rental Queue" tab. Here you will see a list of books in your Rental, along with options to reprioritize the books and even remove a book from the Bookshelf.
To add a book to your Rental Queue, browse/search a book and click on the "Rent Now" button.
To remove a book, check the “Remove” box on the same row as the book, and click on the “Remove” button at the bottom.
To rearrange books in the Bookshelf, use the “Up” and “Down” arrow keys
Books are shipped to you based on priority and availability. If a book is in great demand, despite having multiple copies, we can have a ‘Reserved By Other' situation. Therefore, a longer book queue helps us continuously deliver books of your choice. You are less likely to be faced with a scenario, where you are not shipped books due to an out-of-stock inventory position.
Books are shipped in the order of your queue, subject to availability. Your first choice of book may be in very high demand. If a particular title is not available, the next available book in your queue will be sent to you. We are investing substantial capital to build our inventory, both for new titles as well as additional copies of existing titles. We will fill book request as soon as title of your choice is available.
Your dashboard is where you can update your membership and login details, get your complete billing history and report problems with Book Delivery.
Chances are you only have a few books in your queue or you've chosen only those books that are in peak demand. Try adding more books to your queue. To get the most out of your membership and for your own convenience, we strongly recommend that you keep at least ten books in your queue.
When you register with The Readers Club, you will receive an email detailing your request. Once we verify a few details, you will get a second email confirming your membership. At this point you can login and start browsing/adding books to your Rental Queue. We will get in touch with you to arrange for the first set of books to be delivered and for the cash to be picked up from you.
Once you are done with the first set of books, go to www.thereadersclub.com and navigate to the "Rental Queue" tab and click on "Return" button. We will send you your next set of books within two business days.
