Looking for OpenStax Contemporary Mathematics in the Pressbooks platform
Hello All, I was wondering if anyone has seen the OpenStax title Contemporary Mathematics converted into a Pressbooks XML file? I have a faculty member who is interested in editing the content, but I can't find a suitable file. Thanks for any leads!

Hello :) Can you try using the new Libretexts Sandbox to see if it can convert for you ? They made some major changes over Christmas break - so you may be able to use the platform to get what you want ?

Hi Jessica, I don't know of a Pressbooks XML file for this book, but if you go to the instructor resources tab for <https://openstax.org/details/books/contemporary-mathematics?Instructor%20resources> Contemporary Mathematics<https://openstax.org/details/books/contemporary-mathematics?Instructor%20resources>, it says that you can generate .docx files for the book with an OpenStax account. I just tried this, and it does generate individual .docx files for each section of the book. They're not as high quality as the web version or the PDF, but they're probably the easiest file format to work with.
