A Note About Publishing
Note
If publishing is new to you, here are some things to keep in mind:
- Writing is not a linear process; it is recursive, meaning you may return to previously completed steps, which is ok!
- You can always change how you do something for the next project or iteration.
- Don’t try to accomplish all your goals the first time around. It is important to refer to your scope document.
- Take a break when you need to.
- Try to seek collaborators who can work with uncertainty, especially initially.
- Go easy on yourself, especially if you’re new at this!
- Ask others for help.
Publishing Software: Pressbooks
We use Pressbooks to create and publish OER. In the development phase of your project, you’ll become more familiar with Pressbooks and how it works. You can see more at Getting Started with Pressbooks.
