Enable User Ratings and Reviews

The Enable User Ratings option allows users to rate titles on a scale of one to five stars. If this option is enabled, ratings are displayed throughout the catalog.

The Enable User Reviews option allows borrowers to add reviews to titles. 

The Ratings and Reviews options can be enabled independently of other another. Typically, the Ratings option is more popular. If the Reviews option is enabled in conjunction with the Ratings option, users are prompted to leave a review when adding a rating to a title. Users can disable the review prompt and reenable it in the My Preferences section of the Account Settings.
