The bell at the top of your account shows our new articles, chapters, e-books and bookstore books from the last 60 days, messages from your library, and when your library access is about to end.

• Open Access articles are free to read and download, with or without an account.
• For other articles and book chapters, choose to buy the article or chapter, or the whole issue or volume, and pay online.
• What you buy stays in your account: open Purchased Articles / Chapters to Download the PDF or read the full text, at any time.
• e-Prints: buy access codes for an article (for example to give to students or colleagues). My E-Prints → View Token lists the codes, and Generate CSV downloads them.

• Browse the Book Store. Each book can come as Hard Copy, Paperback, Online (PDF), Kindle or Audio; choose the type, add it to the cart and check out. New and Offers in the side list show recent books and discounted books; you can search titles in Marathi or Hindi script or in English letters.
• For printed books, give the delivery address (your saved address is offered) and pay online.
• Digital editions open from Purchased Bookstore → Read Book.

• My Bookstore Orders lists each order; View shows the books, amounts, delivery address and status (for example Dispatched or Delivered).
• Orders that were started but not paid are shown separately: Complete payment or Remove them.

If money was taken from your account but the order is not listed, please do not pay again. Write to office@gathacognition.com with your payment reference and we will confirm your order.

• If your university, college or institute library has bought our books or subscribes to our journals, you can read them from your own account.
• Open My Library Access and join with the library’s invite code, or with your institutional email (we email a code to that address to confirm it).
• Your librarian may also add you directly; you then get an email with a link to choose your password.
• My Library Access shows your library, your role and department, the date your access ends, everything you can read through the library, and messages from your librarian. While you have library access, you land on the library’s Open access page when you sign in.
• Use the search box at the top of My Library Access (or Search & browse) to find journals, books, articles, chapters and authors. They open inside your library pages, marked Open access, Free or You have access, with Read full text and PDF.
• Access usually lasts one year. Your librarian can renew it, or you can join again with the code or email. The bell warns you 30 days before it ends.
• Your librarian can see which of the library’s articles, chapters and books you open (see our Privacy Policy).
• Your library is not registered yet? Sign in and, on your institute’s page on our site, use Invite your librarian to send them an email about it.
• Librarians: see For Librarians to set up access for your members.
