A collaborative community for planetary sciences.

I decided to shift my career focus from research to education. I found the following resources helpful in my job hunt:

• Chronicle of Higher Education
• HigherEd.Jobs.com
• AAs Job Ref

Also, those looking to do anything with distance education or 2-year-college teaching should look into WebCT/Blackboard.

I recently polled a small subset of the planetary community and recieved these book recommendations. Please add your favorites and comments about individual books.
