The Publishing Cooperative Advisory Group recently announced its revisions to its Publishing Toolkit, expanding the content into two new openly licensed toolkits – the OER Publishing Project Toolkit and the OER Publishing Program Toolkit.
OER Publishing Project Toolkit
The Project toolkit is designed to assist librarians and project facilitators who support academic (faculty) authors who are creating and publishing OER projects. It offers a variety of resources to use at the project level such as templates, style guides, tutorials, checklists, author guidelines, and ready-to-use forms.

OER Publishing Program Toolkit
The Program toolkit is designed for librarians and staff who manage OER publishing programs. This second toolkit guides project managers on how to structure, implement, and assess open textbook publishing programs.
Resources is this toolkit are categorized according to three development phases:
- Planning;
- Implementation; and
- Assessment and review.
As users move through each phase, they can browse resources that inform decisions on staffing, budgets, calls for proposals, author agreements, publishing platforms, contracts and grants, and author consultations.
