Anthology Portfolio is a subscription service that must be renewed annually. If you are enrolled in a course that uses Anthology Portfolio and have opted into the HCU BookPass program, you will automatically receive your access code by email. If you have opted out of the program, you may purchase your license from the [HCU BookPass store](http://hcubookpass.com/).
Note: If you have opted into the BookPass program and have not received your access code, please contact [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) for assistance.
