Scribd is a great place for non-profit organizations, teachers, and others to upload material so it’s readily accessible for their audiences. Our document upload feature provides a solution, allowing uploaded documents to be shared free of charge within the Scribd library!
To ensure your document uploads are freely available to others, follow these steps:
- Sign in to the account containing your document uploads using the Scribd website
- Click on the profile icon in the upper right-hand corner of your screen (desktop browser) or tap on the menu in the upper left-left hand corner of your screen and select “Hi____!” (mobile web browser)
- Select “Your account”
- Scroll down to the “Uploaded documents” section
- Check the box to confirm: “Allow everyone free access to your documents”
Once you’ve completed the above steps, your readers will not be required to purchase a subscription with Scribd to download your documents or read them in full.
We also recommend checking the individual reader permissions for your documents to ensure uploads you’ve made can be downloaded.
