Colleagues,
Please see below for information about an upcoming informational session from the Open Education Network (OEN) about using the Manifold publishing software through our membership. All Iowa institutions have access and I know interest is growing as institutions seek to adapt and publish Open Educational Resources (OER). I coordinate Manifold statewide, so let me know if you have specific questions before or after this session.

Dear OEN Community,

We offer Manifold as an OEN membership benefit, so that more institutions can access publishing infrastructure and create and share OER. Join us next month to learn about our Manifold community.

Manifold Community Orientation
Manifold is an open source publishing workflow developed in collaboration between the CUNY Graduate Center, the University of Minnesota Press, and Cast Iron Coding. At this orientation, we'll provide a guided tour of what Manifold can do, and an overview of our roles and responsibilities. 

Join us on October 15 at 1pm Central. Please register via Zoom.

Inspiration, Documentation & Guidelines
For inspiration, please see our projects and collections, featuring publications by the OEN community. You can also visit the CUNY instance for more examples.

For complete documentation and guidelines, including how to request access, visit https://manifold.open.umn.edu/projects/oen-manifold-community.

As always, thank you for your interest and efforts in publishing OER.

Best,
Karen
