Supporting the next generation with a legacy of ocean knowledge

A Seattle oceanographer is passing along a sizeable textbook collection to a grad student who needs it. They recall the imposter syndrome and overwhelm of early career research, and how owning those books made the path feel more legitimate. This is a quiet act of legacy, grounded in the reality that science is built on shared tools and mentorship. For those navigating similar doubts, *Charting a Career in Ocean Science Beyond Academia and Research* offers further perspective on building a meaningful path in this field.
