Affiliate Disclosure

Affiliate Disclosure explains how Online Library will label commercial book links and protect editorial independence.

Affiliate disclosure for Online Library

Affiliate Disclosure matters because book reviews can influence purchases. Online Library may earn commissions when readers use qualifying commercial links in the future. Any required program-specific disclosure will be added in the appropriate reader-facing location before those links are published.

Commercial links do not determine whether a book receives a positive or negative review. A review should remain useful when the commerce block is removed. That means the page must still explain who the book is for, what it does well, where it may disappoint, and what related books a reader should consider.

How affiliate links are handled

Affiliate links should appear near a clear disclosure, use rel="sponsored nofollow", and avoid hidden redirects unless a future compliance review approves them. Online Library does not display prices, stock status, or cover images from commercial retailers unless those details come from an authorized and current source.

Readers who want more context can read the editorial policy or return to the Online Library home to browse reviews without using commercial links.
