Joining a Group

After joining Booktype you may want to jump right in and create your own book, or you might wish to find and work with others on a book. For this reason, Booktype has groups to bring people together to create books that share a common theme or interest.

To Join a Group

1. Click on Groups in the menu
2. Find the group you want to join in and click on it
3. On the Group page click on the JOIN THIS GROUP button
4. You are added to the group and will see your name appear under the Members tab. 

Removing yourself from a Group

At some point you may want to remove yourself from a group. 

1. Go to your Dashboard and click on the link to the Group.
2. On the Group page click on Leave this group. You will be removed from the group and your name will disappear from the Members list.
