This is the second OER nursing textbook created by the Open RN project, published in May 2021, and funded by a grant from the Department of Education. Sixty-nine reviewers, including international students and faculty members, evaluated this OER for comprehensiveness, accuracy, relevance/currency, clarity, consistency, organization, accessibility/usability, and diversity & inclusion. The free e-book has CC-BY licensing and an optional, affordable print version is also available for purchase on Amazon and in college bookstores from XanEdu. Several learning activities with formative assessments are incorporated throughout the textbook to promote student success in their courses and on their nursing licensure exam.
