Publication
Whether faculty modify existing open materials or write completely new content, the creation process is a collaborative effort that involves various library departments who support their work. We also work with the marketing department to design book covers and make OER look polished and appealing. When faculty are ready to publish their OER, we give the book one last check to make sure everything is formatted correctly, multimedia is working, and no further cleanup is needed. After authors have completed the substantial task of taking an OER from idea to publication, we ensure print copies are available, if requested, and index OER in the university and state repositories to make it discoverable by the community.
