Project Management for Textbook Creation

The purpose of the following chapters is to provide a guide for faculty and instructors adopting, adapting, and creating OER in partnership with OSU Libraries. Each chapter represents one of the five stages in the OpenOKState publishing workflow: pre-production, design, development, publication, and post-publication.  The related OpenOKState Workflow checklist is linked as a  Google Doc here, available as a PDF for download at OpenOKState publishing workflow, and may be viewed in Appendix {?}.
