Frequently Asked Questions
Can I read magazines offline or must I be connected to the Internet?
Yes, magazines can be read offline by using the Zinio Reader App (www.zinio.com/apps)
How do I remove magazines from my account?
1. Login to your Zinio.com account (on your computer) and click Your Library at the top of the page.
2. Click the dropdown arrow in the View box to select the magazine you want to remove.
3. Click the Edit button near the top of the screen, then Remove under each issue.
4. Deleting titles in the Zinio app only deletes them from your device, not your account.
Can I print from Zinio?
Printing is available on Zinio using a computer. Printing is not available from a mobile device.
1. In your Zinio account, click on Your Library, then select a magazine.
2. Go to the page you wish to print.
3. Click the Print icon in the bottom left corner.
I already have my own Zinio.com account. Can I use this account to access the library’s magazines?
Yes! However, we recommend using the same email and password for your RBDigital account that
you used when you created your current Zinio.com account.
I see magazines in my Zinio.com account that I did not select. How did they get there?
From time to time, Zinio may add magazine samples to your account. You can delete them by using
the Edit button and selecting Remove.
I don’t see a magazine I want, either in the library’s collection or from Zinio.com. Why?
Some magazine publishers do not allow Zinio to offer their titles for sale or do not allow libraries to
make these available through Zinio. Each publisher has their own set of rules around this and they
control availability.
How do I get access to a Zinio magazine that is not part of the library’s Zinio Magazine Collection?
The library has a fixed budget for its Zinio collection, but you can purchase individual subscriptions
for titles not available through the library. Rowan Public Library accepts no responsibility for any financial transactions or magazine subscriptions you purchase for your own Zinio.com account.
If I choose to purchase a title that the library doesn’t offer, is it added to the library collection?
No, it is not added to the library collection. The library does not receive any payment from these private subscriptions.
