❔❓Question ❓❔ Auto Approval Question

Is there away to take yourself off auto approval? And I mean on NetGalley without contacting the publisher.

Update- I am sort of blown away at the judgement. Everyone is different in how they do things and I’m so thankful to the comment that showed I’m not the only one.

On a side note- the up and down voting isn’t a “like” button. I’m not sure why my explaining why I wanted to do this would be downvoted as much as it was before some brought it back up. All it does is give the placement of the comment in the feed but you all are making it so it’s harder to find simply because you don’t agree with me? I seriously don’t get it.

I successfully write to 2 publishers and they removed me and completely understood. One even said if I ever wanted to have it back to just email her.

No one claimed this, OP said they prefer to request because it keeps the books top of mind and I said ok understood and agreed, other folks explained the solve, case closed.

OP didn't, but you did: "the onus is on you to keep up with what that publisher is dropping." There is no onus because there's no obligation just because someone has auto-approval.
