Hello Michal -- Your high school students can self-publish books by storing them in the cloud via Dropbox or Google Docs and sending the URLs for them to groups of potential readers.
Your students can also self-publish free via Amazon-Kindle by uploading ready-to-publish Word files. If their books are well-advertised on social media, they could become best-sellers. Finally, your students can use free Calibre software to produce any or all of the popular eBook formats. You may even want to use this software to maintain an eBook collection in your library. See https://calibre-ebook.com/ For examples of my own usage of Calibre, see https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2033458/Moshe/Moses_PowerPoint_2.pptx https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2033458/LCM/LCM_PowerPoint_clean_4.pptx https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2033458/Oedipus/OiJ_PowerPoint_k2_iz3.pptx https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2033458/Spiralogy/SlideShow_1.pptx Shana tova, Izzy [email protected] Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2016 09:07:38 -0700 From: Michal Strutin <[email protected]> Subject: reaching Jewish HS students I'm a librarian, a writer, and a big supporter of student writing. I can't think of more systemic ways of getting the word out, but would be happy to let Kehillah High School (Palo Alto, CA) know. Is there more direct contact information than the contact form on the Fresh Ink for Teens website? Michal Strutin
