Open Resources for Nursing (Open RN) Update

[Mussehl, Vince]

Hi All,

 

The Open RN team is pleased to announce that the first edition text, Nursing: Mental Health and Community Concepts, has been released in Pressbooks with CC-BY 4.0 licensing. The permanent URL is https://wtcs.pressbooks.pub/nursingmhcc/. It will also be uploaded to LibreTexts for easy remixing. We continue to collaborate with XanEdu to create affordable print versions of the Open RN textbooks and anticipate the print version of this book will be available in January 2023.

 

The print version of Nursing Management and Professional Concepts is now available for ordering by emailing purchase orders to textboo...@xanedu.com. It will be available soon on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/dp/173491419X.

 

We are thrilled to share the Open RN textbooks reached over 4 million page views this month by over 1.3 million international users. We look forward to sharing more project updates at the OpenEd 2022 conference. For more information about the Open RN project, as well as previous and future works, visit www.cvtc.edu/OpenRN. ISBNs and specific text information can be found on the Open RN blog.

 

Many thanks to the open community for your time, expertise, and support of this project!
