Webbooks are website versions of your book hosted on Western Open Books. Webooks can be freely distributed to the public.
Authors use webbooks to produce and distribute Open Educational Resources (OER), such as open textbooks. Unlike a PDF, webbooks are a live version of your book that doesn't need to be exported or downloaded.
Western Open Books produces a web version of every book. You can view yours at any time by clicking the Visit Book link underneath the title of your book in the top menu. Your webbook will have a status of 'Private' until you change the Global Privacy Setting to 'Public'.
For more information on how to control the privacy of your webbook, visit the Privacy Settings chapter.
