Create a Book
There are three ways you can create a new book in Pressbooks:
- Create a new book from scratch
- Clone an existing book and adapt it
- Import an existing resource to create a new book
Create a New Book From Scratch
Complete the steps below to create a Pressbook from scratch.
- Click on “Create a New Book”.
- Create your URL: the URL for all your resources will start with ecampusontario.pressbooks.pub/ and you’ll be asked to fill in the remainder of this. Choose wisely because you won’t be able to change it later. For this Activity, call it “My Sandbox”.
- Add a title – we suggest “My Sandbox”.
- Choose the language of the book (this corresponds to the language of the reader’s interface).
- Set Privacy: Choose “No” for this purpose, as you don’t want your “My Sandbox” book to be visible to anyone but you!
