| The Knowledgebase is a comprehensive question and answer guide to home publishing, written specifically for members of our publishing groups.
The Knowledgebase is much more than just an operations manual. It is fully interactive, constantly evolving as we become more experienced as a group. It incorporates an extensive glossary so that you can always check the definition of an unfamiliar word or phrase.
The Knowledgebase is packed full with vital information on running your business. Using it will dramatically improve your chances of success. Find out how we do things, why we do things and sometimes why we don't do things! In other words, use it to learn from our mistakes, instead of making your own.
A great introduction to the business, and invaluable all the way through my first issue.

The Knowledgebase was and still is my absolute bible. It is now a well-thumbed permament fixture on my desk and I still refer to it on an almost daily basis. An indispensible document! Thankyou!
Samantha
The Knowledgebase is excellent! It is very comprehensive, and easy to use to move from section to section and entry to entry. The whole set-up and publishing process is laid out step by step from start to finish, so you can just work your way through it, and go back to refer to it time and again. As it is on-line there is no need to save it and take up memory, and it can be constantly updated to be as accurate as possible!
Alison
There is rarely a question I cannot find an answer to on the Knowledgebase.
Helen
The very steep learning curve when you're starting out doesn't feel quite so bad when you remember to consult the Knowledgebase and find most of the answers waiting there -- tried and tested. Your mistakes have usually been made by someone else already!
Cathy
It's still useful to dip into every now and again, even after three years of being in business as a Grapevine editor.
Tina
Running a magazine can be very time consuming and most of the Family Grapevine editors come across the same issues every day, so having an area you can go to straight away to answer any questions is fantastic.
Anna E
The Knowledgebase is a fantastic resource, especially for editors starting out. It provides information/ideas whenever you need it and has exceeded my expectations by a very long way. Thank you!
Julie
Lots of really useful information to lead you by the hand, without making you feel like a baby yourself!
Katherine
The Knowledgebase is straightforward to use and very comprehensive.
Michelle
When I first started the Grapevine there seemed to be an awful lot to take on board and I was keen to get up and running as soon as possible. I found the Knowledgebase provided great support and gave me the confidence to plan and get started straight away.
