Book Cloning

Pressbooks created a simple process to “clone” or copy any public, openly licensed book from one Pressbooks network to their own PressbooksEDU network. We can then host the open textbook on our FSCJ Pressbooks website then adapt the book for our needs.

You can:

Duplicate and immediately begin adapting books specifically for their classrooms
Replicate and update course syllabi each semester, leaving previous versions intact
Share and disseminate research and books easily with other institutions for quick adoption and adaptation.

Directions for book cloning from the Pressbooks User Guide.
