Join our panel to learn about free, openly licensed textbooks and course materials for nursing. Both OpenStax and OpenRN will share how they develop and publish high-quality, evidence-based nursing resources, with the NCLEX as the final goal. We’ll also discuss search strategies for finding resources beyond these two publishers.
