After the book was published, it was added to the Open Textbooks Library which is run by the Open Education Network at the University of Minnesota. The student authors and I were extremely excited to see that it has been reviewed by professors at Lane Community College and Salem State University, and adopted for use by students in a marine biology course at Lane CC.

Now that it’s Spring 2021 – it’s your turn! It’s time for a second edition and there are many improvements, edits, and additions that you might make. See the canvas site for Pressbooks Login information to the 2nd edition of the textbook.
