RedShelf transitioning to VitalSource (starting 04 Aug 2026)

Due to a change in ownership of RedShelf, ISACA will be transitioning to the VitalSource platform.

VitalSource is renowned for its intuitive and user-friendly interface, offering a range of features designed to enhance the study experience for our members and certification holders.

What’s next:

  • The transition is scheduled for Tuesday, 4 August 2026.

  • Users will continue to access their eBooks through MyISACA, and there will be no change to their ISACA login credentials or purchased content.

  • Current eBook users are expected to be notified in early June, with details and instructions provided through emails, updates on product pages, and a banner on the MyISACA Resources page.

One important action some users may need to take:

  • Existing notes, highlights, bookmarks and reading progress created in RedShelf will not migrate to VitalSource. Users who rely on those features should review any important information before the transition date.

As always, your support and leadership are greatly appreciated. If members have questions or need assistance, please direct them to ISACA Support.
