Vendor Description

Empower Your Community with a Pressbooks Enterprise Network
Pressbooks is a versatile, user-friendly publishing platform educators rely on to create, adapt, and share accessible, interactive, web-first books. We partner with organizations to support institutional and library publishing programs, open education initiatives, curriculum development projects, and more. Today Pressbooks works with over 500 educational institutions, including colleges, universities, non-profit organizations, higher education systems and consortia.

Partnering with Libraries
Empowering knowledge sharing is at the heart of Pressbooks’ mission as a company. Some of Pressbooks’ longest-standing client relationships are with libraries and library-based publishers.

We provide libraries and other organizations with a hassle-free, SaaS-based version of our publishing platform for them to deploy to their communities. With this tool set, we love supporting libraries’ mandate to make knowledge widely available and accessible. Often this happens through open education initiatives supported by libraries, as well as other library-anchored projects.
