Re: Looking to create iBooks of student work

Oops... I hit send accidentally.

Here's another link that looked great:

And while this forum post isn't completely relevant, it might be useful to
those who want to officially get their works in the iBook store:

Also, some people prefer to keep documents as PDFs and upload them to
Dropbox and use the Dropbox access to access and read docs.

Hope this helps,
