Book Description

The RMIT Open Publishing Toolkit for Authors is a guide for those who want to publish an open educational resource with RMIT Open Press. It steps authors through the process they will undertake when working with the RMIT Open Publishing Team, and sets out guidelines and expectations for the undertaking.

It covers:

  • Planning an open publication: guiding principles and considerations
  • Preparing your manuscript: style and licence requirements; keeping track of your project; inclusivity and accessibility; creating your manuscript; academic integrity; and quality and peer review
  • Working with the RMIT Open Publishing Team: the role of authors, and the role of the RMIT Open Publishing Team.

While this book was developed specifically for an RMIT University audience, others may find it useful as a resource to refer to, or to adopt or adapt for their own contexts.
