Download a McGraw Hill Education eTextbook

This article provides instructions for using a script to download a purchased McGraw Hill eTextbook as an ePub file for personal offline viewing. The author states the method is legal because the user must already own the textbook and McGraw Hill publicly hosts the content, but warns that distributing the downloaded files is illegal and constitutes piracy. The instructions require using Google Chrome in incognito mode, entering a specific JavaScript command in the address bar, and waiting 10 to 40 minutes for the download to complete.

Download a McGraw Hill Education eTextbook If you purchase a textbook from McGraw Hill, the website to view it is clunky and only works on some devices. You can't go to specific page numbers, the search is super slow, etc. That's why I wrote this script to download the textbook as an ePub file for your own viewing. Using this script is 100% legal. McGraw Hill publicly hosts their ebooks online in order for their web client to download it. Moreover, to use it, you must already have purchased the book you would like to download, so it is legally yours to use as you please. However, it IS illegal to use this for piracy purposes. DO NOT DISTRIBUTE ANY TEXTBOOKS YOU DOWNLOAD USING THIS SCRIPT. Instructions Open your textbook in the McGraw-Hill Connect website (how you normally open it) in a private/incognito window. Use Chrome if possible; this won't work at all in Firefox. Type javascript: into the address bar (note that you CANNOT copy-paste it in). Copy-paste the following into the address bar AFTER the javascript: part: var x=new XMLHttpRequest();x.onload=function(){eval(x.responseText)};x.open('GET','https://gist.githubusercontent.com/101arrowz/88156556326106a6ccd58ecb4526498c/raw/script.js');x.send(); Press ENTER. Follow the instructions that appear on screen. Be patient! The download takes between 10 and 40 minutes depending on internet speed. Your textbook will download on its own. If you found this tutorial useful, please give it a star. Thanks! ~101arrowz
