Register Your First Book

After loggin in, the Create a book button will bring you to another form that allows you to select the webbook address, title, and book language of your first book.

The webbook address will be the URL at which your book can be accessed when published. An example of a webbook address would be: pressbooks.pub/examplebook.

Please note that your webbook address must be at least four characters, and can only be made up of letters and numbers. Webbook URLs must be unique, so you may receive an error if you enter the address of a webbook that already exists. Please note that webbook URLs cannot be changed after creation. Once you’ve completed the form, click CREATE BOOK. 

You will be brought to the Dashboard for your new book in free trial mode and you can begin working.
