A library that still needs building
Creator collabs
The Library needs to be built with your help. This is a creative, collaborative, knowledge-focused effort on a global scale. People already come to Kahana from 110+ countries. Joining means adding something only you can add, and helping the next person find it.
Unique work, on purpose
The library gets better when it holds work that does not already exist in ten other places. We want more of that. Upload what is yours: the thing you have spent years getting right.
That is also how work does well here. If people find it useful, helpful, noteworthy, or cool, they give Aura, and it becomes easier to discover. Read why the Aura Library matters.
Work with us
We can help with the hub, and with revenue
Some creators want a free hub people can open immediately. Some want a priced hub and a path to earnings. Both are welcome. The Kahana team helps you set up and publish a hub that is ready for the library.
1
You bring something only you know
A process, a course, a body of research, a practice. Heady subjects welcome: ideas, craft, careers, science, writing, the kind of knowledge that takes a person to hold. Everyone has something unique. The library is looking for that, not a copy of what is already everywhere.
2
We help you shape the hub
The Kahana team works with you on creation, format, and what the hub should look like. We talk through the tweaks, and we can build it that way. Free or priced. If you want to earn, we help you set the hub up so people can pay for access.
3
You publish it
When it is ready, you post it. It is your work, on your profile, in your voice. We do not publish it for you under our name.
4
We help it get found
Once it is up, we feature it and help it get extra views and extra traffic. Aura from readers is still what makes work rise. Featuring is a start, not a substitute for work people actually find useful.
After you publish
Tell your story
Once your first hub is on the Library, you can join us for an 8-minute podcast inspired by How I Built This. Tell the story of the hub, why you shared the knowledge, and what you hope happens next. The episode goes on YouTube, with short clips on social.
The way to reach us is the contact page. Include your name, email, and hub link, and say you want to record.
Example
Amy Wang's profile
Amy (wAmy) is the shape we walk creators through. Her public profile is the front door. Behind it is a priced hub: the internship and research process she actually used, plus the resume and email templates that go with it. One place, listed so students can find it, instead of a scattered set of tips.
That is the kind of hub we help build. Format, files, and how it should read when a stranger opens it. Then you post it, and we help it travel.
What you get from a collaboration
- Help deciding what belongs in the hub, and what to leave out.
- A format and look we build with you, free or priced.
- A path to revenue if you choose to charge for access.
- A feature and extra traffic once you publish.
The longer list of what creators get on Kahana is on Benefits for creators.
