Open Education Alberta: OER Publishing Service
Open Education Alberta is a collaborative, no-fee publishing service for open textbooks and other open educational resources. It allows educators from the University of Calgary to host OERs on a Pressbooks instance hosted by the University of Alberta Library.
What is Pressbooks?
Pressbooks is a simple publishing software for the authoring and publication of multimedia-rich print books, ebooks, and webbooks. The published books are shareable in multiple formats including PDF, EPUB, and MOBI and can easily be adapted and updated using the Pressbooks software. Our program offers the PressbooksEDU version of the software, which has added plug-ins, interactive options, and formatting to suit your educational resource and learning needs.
