Membership Benefits. As a Member of PRESSBOOK.COM, you have the opportunity to post your Pressbook Content (i.e., your résumé, contact information, biographical information, likeness and samples of your work, provided as image, video, audio-video, or text files) online, where Industry Professionals can find you and learn more about your talents and experience. If an Industry Professional is interested in your talent, he or she will contact you or an agent designated by you.

As a Member of PRESSBOOK.COM, you may post your Pressbook Content on the Website for your particular discipline (Photography, Film, Music, Art, Dance, Text etc). You can also post Pressbook Content for your team, suppliers, end-users, band, troupe or group ("band"), but by doing so, you represent that you have authority to bind your team, band etc and your fellow team, band etc members to these Terms of Use, and each of you, your team, band etc and your fellow team, band etc members agree to fulfil all obligations of Members of PRESSBOOK.COM.

PRESSBOOK.COM allows Members to post their Pressbooks, where they may be seen by Industry Professionals using our service, and educates Members about ways in which they can seek to achieve success in the communication industry. It is your responsibility and choice to pursue those avenues of potential employment.
