Hi @swhalen and @cdobson – how are you both doing? I hope that you’ve been able start gathering the team around the project! Since you already have a small group around the project, I wanted to share the “Engagement Guide”from The Rebus Guide to Publishing Open Textbooks (So Far) as it includes some tips for how to foster good team communication and keep others motivated and excited to be part of the project.
And if you were looking for more collaborators to join the project, you can post a call for participation that we will be happy to share in our newsletter. We have a dedicated space in our newsletter for just this, and give anyone the opportunity to take advantage of our reach. If you would like your call included in this section, post in the Contributor Marketplace. Create a new topic for every call, and include the role you wish to fill and the subject of your book in the title. In the body of the post, provide:
- Project Name
- Subject
- What you need
- Contributor requirements
See this example post for a better idea of what we’re looking for.
When your call is ready for promotion, let us know in this thread. @LeighKP, our communications specialist, keeps tabs on this thread. She shares calls on our Twitter and in this newsletter.
We’re excited to hear more about how you’re getting on!
