Hi there everyone, I would like to ask the group for permission to use some of the materials from the Retreat we had earlier this year with the new community of practice I am also guiding - the Open Education Practices group, composed mostly by Instructional Designers. They are at the stage that they would like to think about aims and goals, so I would love to share some of the materials we used. The materials are here: http://bcoerguides.wikispaces.com/BCOER+Librarian+User+Group+-+Retreat Let me know if that is ok or not.

by Kevin Stranack

FYI... -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [lpc-l] GVSU professor recognized for library-published OER Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2017 19:59:26 +0000 From: Matt Ruen <ruenm(a)gvsu.edu> To: LPC-L <lpc-l(a)lists.purdue.edu> I'm excited to share the news that Grand Valley State University mathematics professor Ted Sundstrom is to receive the inaugural Daniel Solow Author's Award from the Mathematical Association of America, in recognition of /Mathematical Reasoning: Writing and Proof/ <http://scholarworks.gvsu.edu/books/9/>, an open educational resource published through ourScholarWorks@GVSU <http://scholarworks.gvsu.edu/>repository platform. The Daniel Solow Author's Award celebrates authors whose materials have had a positive impact on undergraduate mathematics education. /Mathematical Reasoning: Writing and Proof/is one of our favorite OER and library publishing success stories: after Dr. Sundstrom reclaimed his copyright from the original commercial publisher, the GVSU Libraries helped him make the textbook openly available online to a growing global audience. Dr. Sundstrom's textbook has been formally adopted at 47 universities, while the digital editions in ScholarWorks were downloaded more than 22,000 times in 2016 alone! On behalf of the GVSU Libraries' scholarly communications team, congratulations to Dr. Sundstrom! ---------- For more about Dr. Sundstrom, his textbook, and this award, see this article from GVSU's University Communications team:http://www.gvsu.edu/gvnow/2017/professor-to-receive-inaugural-mathemat… Listserv readers might also be interested to view the video series created by the GVSU Mathematics department as a companion to Mathematical Reasoning, with 107 openly-licensed videos available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2419488168AE7001 <https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2419488168AE7001> ---------- Matt Ruen Scholarly Communications Outreach Coordinator Grand Valley State University Libraries ruenm(a)gvsu.edu Pronouns: he/him/his

Textbookbroke campaigns

by Flewelling, Debra

Hello, It is that time of semester when we hopefully see more attention brought to the high cost of textbooks. UVIC made the papers - http://www.saanichnews.com/news/410166795.html#.WHZqlZmgDuo.twitter And here at Douglas, the Douglas College Student Union set up a table set in our concourse area (see attached picture). I took the picture at the end of the day but during the day I noticed they had a lot of traffic around the table. Did anything happen at your institution that you would like to share?

Next BCOEL meeting

by Flewelling, Debra

Hello, I was going to send out a Doodle for our next meeting but as I look at Rosario's doodle for the mediawiki training it looks like everyone is available on Wednesday Jan. 25th. Do you think it is possible to have a meeting that day as well or would that be too much? If so, I can put out a Doodle for dates after Jan. 25th. Thoughts?
