Summary:

"This summer, Texas A&M biology will make the switch from Campbell Biology to the OpenStax Introductory Biology textbook, an open-source product created under a Creative Commons license that allows for customization to suit both professor and course-specific needs. The online version of the text is free to students, and printed versions can be obtained at the student’s discretion for a nominal fee."
