Kortext is an online platform that provides you with eTextbooks for your module's core text.
Look out for emails from Kortext! These emails will activate your eTextbooks and enable you to set up your own personal Kortext account.
Note: We recommend that you first activate your Kortext through the emails sent to your student email before accessing them on My Learning.
If you haven't received emails giving you access to your Kortext, or if your Kortext doesn't appear on your My Learning module pages, please contact:
To Access Kortexts through My Learning:
1. Log into myUniHub using your username and password.
2. Click on My Study and go to the My Learning box.
3. Click on a module title and then click on the module title you want to read the Kortext for.
5. On the My Learning module page, scroll down. In the right-hand column, you will see the Kortext link.
When using Library Search, you may come across a Kortext Licenced eBook.
These Kortext licenced eBooks act differently from the assigned Kortext for your modules.
Once you access Kortext Licenced eBooks, they will state they are accessible for a limited amount of time (e.g. a few days). But don't worry, they won't disappear from your Kortext account. To reborrow, click on 'Borrow Again' on your Kortext Account bookshelf.
These digital textbooks can be read offline using the Kortext app, digitally annotated, and read aloud.
You can read important sections for your studies and go back to your notes whenever you want!
To read your book offline, you need to download the Kortext app onto your computer or portable device.
