Pressbooks and the Open Education Network have been friends since the early days of the open education movement, collaborating in multiple ways to help the movement grow. Our partnership allows OEN members to get acquainted with Pressbooks and experience creating a book, working collaboratively with multiple users, and trying out educational features (like the ability to add interactive quizzes) that enhance your book.
