Open Book Publishing is a simple book production software that is powered by Pressbooks and available to Northwestern faculty and staff who want to publish openly licensed materials. You can use Open Book Publishing to create and publish original materials, or to adapt existing openly licensed materials such as open educational resources (OER), textbooks, scholarly monographs, fiction and non-fiction books, white papers, and more. Open Book Publishing supports integration of embedded multimedia, interactive exercises, mathematical equations, and web annotation.
Published webbooks are mobile friendly, and can be exported in multiple formats, including accessible EPUBs and PDFs that can be distributed digitally or printed at cost.
