Hello all,
Just a reminder that we will be hosting an informal session on Pressbooks support at B.C.
colleges and universities this Thursday from 11am-12pm via
Zoom<https://langara.zoom.us/j/65221795334?pwd=WHdBWnhWdXFVMjNUTnZqbGhIRTlHQT09>.
Colleagues from BCIT, KPU, and UBC will start us off with an overview of Pressbooks
support at their institutions. Our friends from BCcampus will also be joining us in case
you have any questions for them.
No registration required and all are welcome. The session will be recorded if you're
unable to attend in real time; we will share the link on the BCOEL listserv.
We hope to see you there!

Subject: Pressbooks Support in B.C. Post-Secondaries: A Conversation (May 27 11am-12pm)
Dear BCOEL community,
Please join us on Thursday, May 27 from 11am-12pm for a conversation about how B.C.
colleges and universities are supporting Pressbooks. Speakers from three post-secondary
institutions (BCIT, Kwantlen, and UBC) will share some of the successes and challenges
they've experienced. We'll leave ample time for Q&A/casual discussion.
Pressbooks is an open source book production platform based on WordPress. Our open
education partner, BCcampus, hosts an instance of Pressbooks and offers staff and
educators from post-secondary institutions in B.C. and the Yukon a free
account<https://pressbooks.bccampus.ca/>.
This is an informal session for information sharing and no registration is required (Zoom
details provided below). We hope to see many of you there!
Many thanks,
Lindsay Tripp
(on behalf of the BCOEL Steering Committee)
