• This paper proposes a producer-consumer model in order to develop in a collaborative manner a human-computer interaction (HCI) textbook with professionals in Latin America. The model is composed of services to support the collaborative production of and access to an HCI textbook. The model is presented as an alternative solution to mitigate the current problem of lack of academic contents in the domain of HCI in Latin America. A case study presents the result of the use of an HCI e-book according to the proposed model. The book was used as an open textbook by several teachers and researchers from different Latin American Universities.
