Hello.
We had a book created here at USask several years ago, and the author unfortunately chose to A) put an ND license on it and B) let the media production team build it in iBooks. The author has since retired and the instructor who teaches the class now says that students often have trouble finding the book and would like to put it into Pressbooks. Is this allowed under and ND license?
Thank you.

Dear colleagues,
As of February 1, 2024, the B.C. Open Textbook Collection will no longer be hosted on open.bccampus.ca. The contents of this collection will continue to be available at collection.bccampus.ca<https://collection.bccampus.ca/>.
Open textbooks and open course packs have been hosted on collection.bccampus.ca since June 2022. Ever since this site was launched, there has been a notice on the home page of open.bccampus.ca letting users know about the new collection site. This notice has been revised to state the closure date of the collection on open.bccampus.ca. We will be sure to send out several notices to the community about the upcoming closure.
Information about adopting open resources and connecting with others in the open education community will still be available at open.bccampus.ca. We encourage you to explore the wealth of information available on the site and continue to spread the word about all things open.
Thank you for your understanding and ongoing support. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at open(a)bccampus.ca.
Thank you,
