Collections:Living Textbooks of Chemistry

From ChemEd Collaborative

The Living Textbooks of Chemistry is a collection of chemistry textbooks made available through ChemEd Collaborative (this wiki). Using the collaborative and open environment of a wiki allow the content of the textbook to evolve over time.

The Journal of Chemical Education, a ChemEd DL partner, has been tagged as "the living textbook of chemistry'. Through the use of ChemEd Collaborative, this vision comes closer into focus.

Our initial offering is a general chemistry textbook, "Chemistry" by John W. Moore, William G. Davies, and Ronald W. Collins. This book was originally published in 1978. It has been scanned and is undergoing conversion. Chapter 1 is currently available as an example.

We invite contributions to this collection. Such contributions may include links to other open online chemistry textbooks.
