Another way to reactivate your account when you don't come into school for longer than two weeks, i.e. during summer vacation, is to use your school email. Please follow the steps below:

1) Go to Press Reader's website and log in with your credentials,  
2) Click "Manage" on the right-hand side of "Library or Group" under "My Account"
3) Click on "Resend Verification Link" and confirm the verification link that has been sent to your email address.

Features you wouldn't want to miss

Text-to-Speech

PressReader now offers the option to use your own device's speech engine to read articles out loud. Just open the app, download your favorite newspaper or magazine, and enable Text-to-Speech. When you tap Listen to start your session, you'll be able to use the arrows to skip ahead in the issue, or back to the previous article at any time. The radio mode in PressReader will instantly acquire all of the audio preferences from your device. It will use the voice you've chosen, and the speech speed that you've previously selected. The stories will be read in this way until you change your Text-to-Speech (TTS) settings. (from PressReader website)
