Open Textbook Network Members Save 30% on PressbooksEDU

The Open Textbook Network (OTN) is committed to providing a variety of affordable, flexible and scalable publishing support.  With this in mind, we’re happy to announce a new benefit! OTN member institutions can now take 30% off the cost of PressbooksEDU Silver and Gold plans.*

Pressbooks EDU Silver and Gold plans are private, standalone Pressbooks networks which can reflect your university brand. They come with premium support, and are optimized for academia with plugins and educational features not available at Pressbooks.com.

PressbooksEDU plans include the popular new “cloning” feature, which enables users to clone any openly licensed, public textbook from another Pressbooks network. This means it’s now easier to modify an existing open textbook produced by faculty at another university. The plans also enable users to create their open textbooks in multiple formats (EPUB, PDF, MOBI, XML and more) to facilitate distribution and remixing.

*As of January 2020, Open Textbook Network institutional members are eligible for 30% off PressbooksEDU Silver plans. Institutional members purchasing a Silver network can also receive a 30% discount when purchasing Pressbooks’ FTE-priced LTI add-on through Dec. 1, 2020. The PressbooksEDU Gold plan has been discontinued; it is no longer available to new subscribers.

Please email sales@pressbooks.com to get started. Or, to learn more about PressbooksEDU, go to Pressbooks.Education.

OTN members are eligible to create one open textbook project using the OTN PressbooksEDU Sandbox, for free. Please use this form to request access to the sandbox.
