Going further

There is always more to learn about water quality testing! We have created this list of further reading that goes beyond our own supporting materials for understanding water quality and testing. If you would like to browse our supporting materials, click here. If you would like to see some of our blog posts, click here.

This list is focused on water quality education in Canada. As our knowledge and understanding of the science and social issues facing water quality change, so does this list of resources. As our network of educators grows, so too does our context of understanding water quality!
