Open RN Resources

OpenRN
The mission of Open RN is to lower the cost of nursing textbooks through creation of 5 free OER textbooks for foundational nursing courses.

Open RN textbooks are published in Pressbooks where they are free and accessible in online or downloadable formats. The textbooks will be stored in the online repository, LibreTexts, where they can easily be "remixed" by faculty and aligned to their curriculum. Optional print versions will also be available through the publisher XanEdu in college bookstores and on Amazon.
