Guy Paddock, Social Networking Game Team Lead & Page2Pub engineer at the Open Publishing Lab (OPL) @RIT, describes Page2Pub, an innovative publishing tool to aggregate content from the Internet into a portable, print-ready format.
Open Publishing Lab projects like Page2Pub leverage the interactivity of the web to strengthen the connection between people and their ideas – open knowledge networks - to social and economic investment in communities and their regions.
Page2Pub is an Open Source software project that OPL hopes will provide others with as a platform for research into this area of publishing.
