About this Tool
Pressbooks is a tool that enables faculty and students to create and publish text in multiple formats. You can enhance your text with video, activities, links, and more, enabling interactivity not possible with a print textbook. Texts can be downloaded for reading from a computer, mobile device, eReader (such as Kindle), or in print. You can host your text in Canvas, on the web, or anywhere you make the exported files available.
Key Features for Teaching and Learning
- Publish your own eText. Compose and publish eTexts for IU classes in collaboration with IU Press.
