Do you have a piece of writing that you’d like to turn into an ebook? Join us to learn how! Whether you are a technology beginner or an advanced coder who wants to apply your skills to your writing, this program is for you.

We will provide instruction and guidance on creating an ebook using an open-source software called Calibre. We’ll go over the basics of preparing your work for the ebook format, importing and editing your ebook in Calibre, and testing the finished book. You must have the rights to a digital version of your work to participate.

This three-part program will take place in-person in The Lab on the following dates:

  • Tuesday, May 17, from 1 to 2:30 p.m.
