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?
Take a moment to fill out our survey:
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. Visit our webpage for more
