I was about to create a post about the same issue. Our book was made public on 1/7 and it does not yet show in the Pressbooks Directory. Does anyone know how to request a book be added to the directory?

Hi @Hawaiian_Malia, your book does show in the [Pressbooks Directory](https://pressbooks.directory/?q=binary+minds). Thank you for your work!

Hi @kawiles, you will want to edit the privacy settings and choose “Yes. I want this book to be listed in the Pressbooks Directory.” [Settings – Pressbooks User Guide](https://guide.pressbooks.com/chapter/settings/)  
Once you save this change, the Directory will take less than a day to update and list your book too. Thank you for your work!
