The toolkit is a united effort between Milne Library at SUNY Geneseo and the Monroe County Library System to identify trends in library publishing, seek out best practices to implement and support such programs, and share the best tools and resources. Our goals include to:
- Develop strategies libraries can use to identify types of publishing services and content that can be created and curated by libraries.
- Assess trends in digital content creation and publishing that can be useful in libraries and suggesting potential future projects.
- Identify efficient workflows for distributing content for free online and with potential for some cost-recovery in print on demand markets.
