Hello Colleagues, Many think of publishing in one way--the production and sale of a book. Librarians know this is only one of many ways people access information--the library world is expanding to reach and support users in creative ways. We believe producing and publishing of content--ebooks, zines, podcasts and more--enriches a library’s community by engaging our society’s desire to share knowledge. The Library Publishing Toolkit has two major goals: *We want to hear stories* of the innovative ways libraries are creating and distributing materials as a part of their public services, or how they are helping patrons with these tasks. *We want to provide resources* to libraries looking to augment their services with creative and engaging publishing projects and services. Interested? * Please take a moment to fill out our survey*: www.publishingtoolkit.org/about-you/libraries<http://www.publishingtoolkit.org/about-you/libraries> Brainstorm what you or others in your library do that involves or supports creation. *Tell us the whole story! * Write a brief article/chapter about your library experiences with content creation and creator services.
