This topic thread is for news articles and other press coverage of the _[Soil and Water Conservation: An Annotated Bibliography](https://newprairiepress.org/ebooks/30/)_ textbook. I thought it might be useful to document how this textbook is being promoted for other Rebus Community members. ---

Here’s an article in the K-State Today daily newsletter: [Moorberg publishes open textbook on soil and water conservation](https://www.k-state.edu/today/announcement/?id=61071). The target audience for this story was the greater Kansas State University community, including students. ---

I also created a [page for the textbook on goodreads.com](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/49691045-soil-and-water-conservation). I don’t know if textbooks get much traffic on that site. However, I thought it might be a way to interact with readers to some extent, as well as get feedback on the textbook. ---
