Publishing a Project

You may want to share your project with readers outside your collaboration group, whether thats others interested in the topic or your professor for a group project.

There are two steps to making a project public.

To the right of your annotation, you'll find a toggle button marked "Private." Click it to make your annotation public. You must click this button for each annotation that you want others to see. This means that if you have annotations in your collection that you do NOT want others to see, you can leave them marked "Private." All annotations are "Private" by default.

When you're ready to share, click the publish button. You'l be able to create a sharable link for others to view the objects, your contextualizing texts, and your public annotations.

The URL generated for your project will typically end in the title you've given it plus a number. Your public project will ONLY include annotations you've marked public.
