In your book area in our Teams channel you’ll find ‘training materials’. Feel free to use the padlet to help structure your book and assign parts and chapters to different co-authors.
Pressbooks
Once you have planned your structure, you can add the book’s skeleton in Pressbooks. Login to Pressbooks and go to ‘My Books’. If you want to edit the title etc. click ‘edit book info’.
To add your parts and chapters click ‘organise book’.
Your Pressbook has been set up to see ‘Front Matter’ where you can add front matter sections such as ‘accessibility statement’ and ‘acknowledgements, ‘ and ‘back matter.’
You will add parts and chapters to form the main body of text.
Add a part
Click on ‘parts’, ‘add new part’, entitle your part e.g. ‘part 1’. Find your book, ‘manage site’ and then ‘add chapter’ underneath part 1. Repeat the process for part 2, part 3 etc.
If you don’t want to divide your book up into parts, you can make parts invisible. This will provide a long list of chapters in the body of the text.
