Can I read my book in Facing Pages?

This will depend on your eTextbook type. Two different types of electronic textbooks are sold in the VitalSource Bookstore: Reflowable Text VitalBooks (ePubs) and Page-Fidelity VitalBooks (PDF). 

 

If your eTextbook is a Page-Fidelity textbook you can set your view in Facing Pages on the desktop version of Bookshelf (for Windows and Mac). To do this click ton the Aa button, then select "Facing Pages".
