BiblioBoard and Library Self-Publishing of E-Books

BiblioBoard, Pressbooks Partner on Library-Based Self-Publishing

Porter Anderson | November 13, 2015

US library digital patron-services provider BiblioBoard and Canadian online book-production specialist Pressbooks are forming a new partnership called Pressbooks Public, designed to let libraries offer e-book-publishing services to their local authors.
The timing of the coordinated effort by Pressbooks and BiblioBoard is significant: the beta version of Pressbooks Public is being created during the ongoing international "NaNoWriMo" National Novel Writing Month project, which runs through November and sees many fledgling and veteran writers produce a first draft of a book in 30 days. The launch of the full Pressbooks Public programme is anticipated to be made during the American Library Association's annual MidWinter conference, 8-12 January in Boston.
