Pressbooks is the University of Groningen and Radboud University supported platform for authoring and publishing open access textbooks. It is used by educators and institutions worldwide to produce, adapt, and share accessible high-quality textbooks. With this authoring tool, one can create interactive content, embed multimedia, add public annotation functionality, and choose from a wide range of open content for inspiration and adaptation.
Whether it’s adapting existing open educational resources (OER), supporting student-led publishing projects, or developing fit-for-purpose faculty-created materials to enhance learning, institutions are increasingly turning to digital publishing platforms to meet the moment.
Curious to learn more about open textbooks, publish one with us, or explore other learner-centered resources that are openly and freely accessible to all? For RUG staff take a look at the variety of open educational resources (OER) or get in touch with the University Library OER experts for a consultation.
