Conductor: Project Management
Conductor is the project management workspace for building open educational resources with LibreTexts. Whether you're writing a new textbook, remixing existing content, or gathering ancillary materials for a course, Conductor gives you and your collaborators one place to organize the work from the first idea to the published book.
Behind the scenes, Conductor also coordinates many of the LibreTexts tools you'll use along the way. Think of it the way an orchestra conductor keeps every musician in time: it doesn't write the content itself, but it makes sure importing, remixing, accessibility checks, PDF generation and publishing all happen in the right order.
You'll need a verified instructor account (through LibreOne) to use Conductor. Once you're signed in, open it from the Launchpad, or go straight to commons.libretexts.org.
What you can do in Conductor
- Start and organize projects for textbooks, learning objects and other OER, all from your Home page with My Projects and My Tasks.
- Build a team and assign roles so everyone knows who is leading, contributing and reviewing.
- Plan the work with tasks, a timeline of milestones, and discussion threads for your team.
- Store assets such as syllabi, slides and PDFs alongside your book, shared publicly or kept restricted.
- Review for quality with peer review and accessibility review tools.
- Get help from the AI Co-Author tools for summaries, alt text, glossaries and metadata.
