What would the pandemic have been like if testing had been more available? The college town of Davis, Calif., offers some clues. politico.com/news/magazine/…

Your favourite #OER Textbook ecosystem, Delmar Larsen, is going to have a snazzy new 'reader mode'/interface. Accessible, personalizable, snappy, and uncomplicated.

I am pleasantly surprised and honored to be a finalist for the #OEAwards this year. I am blessed to be part of the #OER community over the past 15 years including internalizing its "sharing is caring" model and adopting its "it take's a village" mentality. #thefutureisopen

#LibreTexts is an #OEAwards22 finalist in the Open Infrastructure category!👇🎉 We hope that anyone can learn from the content we host as well as the technologies that make up our ecosystem; a great majority of our codebase is open-source! 🖥⚡️

HearYe HearYe LibreTexts authors: Comprehensive Licensing reports are now added to every book during batch. These will stay up-to-date even if the book is not batched for some time (and no recompilation necessary).

We’re excited to roll out licensing reports on all #LibreTexts books! We hope they will make it easier for authors and readers to understand how/what OER content they can use/reuse/remix ♻️🧾

Two weeks ago we converted 100,000+ English #OER pages into Spanish and Ukrainian with Machine Translation (thanks to Amazon Web Services and NICE CXone). We are see a 4-four increase in traffic to the Espanol library w/ growth in Ukrayinska. espanol.libretexts.org ukrayinska.libretexts.org

Great stuff from Learnful 🇨🇦! Lots of potential here and it’s all #OpenSource! 🤖🎤

Yippie! LibreTexts has logged ~948 million pageview of OER since we were founded as the ChemWiki. We will celebrate our 15-year Jubilee (birthday) in March when we reach 1 billion pageviews. After all, sharing is caring and we care a lot about affordable education.

Data rocks! I significantly underestimated the number of PDF downloads we shared each month. Now that we are tracking them more carefully, I can see that my estimate was 10x too low. LibreTexts distributes 300,000 PDFs of #OER monthly now. Nice!

I am simply devastated that the young person killed Saturday night at Sycamore Park in Davis was a UC Davis student, Karim Abou Najm. By all accounts, he was an exceptional student, son and friend. Full letter with safety tips and campus resources: leadership.ucdavis.edu/news/uc-davis-…
