Original files for two BCOEL documents?

by Lindsay Tripp

Hello all, Kony Trudel from the Canada School of Public Service reached out to BCcampus regarding two BCOEL documents: the Open Education Resource Repository (OERR) Rubric<https://open.bccampus.ca/files/2014/07/OERR-Rubric.pdf> and the Faculty Guide for Evaluating Open Education Resources<https://open.bccampus.ca/files/2014/07/Faculty-Guide-22-Apr-15.pdf>. Specifically, Kony would like to have these documents translated into French and is hoping we can provide the original files (.docx, .pptx). ...I joined BCOEL in late 2017 so these documents (which were created/revised in 2015) preceded me. Thanks in advance for your leads!

Re: [Bcoelsteering] Open Textbooks/OER Adoptions

by Flewelling, Debra

Hi everyone, For a long time now I’ve wanted us to share what resources we use just as OpenOregon<https://openoregon.org/resources/> does and I specifically asked that and Mary Burgess said that it was a privacy issue. I would find it invaluable to know if someone at another institution is using an OER/library ebook for their course. Until we can do something like Oregon, perhaps we can figure out a way that we can share a spreadsheet with each other that would just indicates the course and the specific resource used and then at least we can contact each other for more details. I’d be happy to work on this with anyone who would like to see this happen as well. Have a good weekend all.

CPSLD/BCOEL joint submission re: copyright term extension

by Lindsay Tripp

Hello all, As I mentioned during our last meeting, I approached CPSLD (the association representing post-secondary library directors in B.C.) in February about collaborating with BCOEL on copyright advocacy efforts. Last week CPSLD confirmed that they were keen to jointly author a submission regarding implementation of the copyright term extension. Under CUSMA (the Canada-US-Mexico Agreement, or 'new NAFTA') the term of copyright in Canada will be extended from life of the creator +50 years, to life +70. This will have a great impact on open educational practice, and higher education more broadly. The government gave stakeholders just one month to submit comments on how the extension should be implemented. The due date for submissions is tomorrow, March 12. The educational sector asked for an extension, but the request was denied by the departments leading the consultation process, Heritage Canada and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED). Over the past week, I worked with Darcye to draft the CPSLD/BCOEL submission. It received approval from Trish Rosseel, CPSLD Chair and Director, Learning Resources & Records Management at Douglas College, and one of the association's members who works closely with copyright. It's now with the general CPSLD membership for further comment. We'd also like to invite members of the BCOEL Steering Committee to review the draft and provide feedback (by noon tomorrow, if possible). Please feel free to insert your comments directly in the Google Doc<https://docs.google.com/document/d/110lw-5xu99Jju6vOl7HeUWKgZofsiclnFR-eyOE…>. We apologize for the quick turnaround, but there were lots of moving parts. The process has been very collaborative, with lots of information sharing and fruitful discussion amongst PSI copyright specialists, higher ed administrators, and professional associations representing PSIs and libraries. In particular, there was debate about whether an 'opt in' registration system for the additional 20 years of copyright protection is feasible in the context of Canada's obligations under various international copyright treaties. The approach we ultimately suggested aligns with College and Institutes Canada (CICan) and has been endorsed by a number of legal experts/scholars in Canada, including Michael Geist, Howard Knopf, and Meera Nair. A similar model was also proposed the by former Director of the U.S. Copyright Office back in 2013. We look forward to hearing your thoughts! Sincerely, Darcye and Lindsay Lindsay Tripp Copyright Librarian Langara Library 604.323.5290 100 West 49th Avenue, Vancouver, BC, V5Y 2Z6 Unceded Musqueam Territory [Langara Logo]<https://langara.ca/> ________________________________ Please consider the environment before printing.

Re: [Bcoelsteering] Open Textbooks/OER Adoptions

by Cheinman, Ksenia (CSPS/EFPC)

Hello all, I think it is a great idea to share such data as well Darcye and while unfortunately, I have nothing to offer in terms of sharing back, I would find great benefit in knowing what others are using, as it could significantly help with advocacy and speed up helping others find relevant resources. It would be amazing if this could be an open database ☺ a project for one day… While I understand the privacy considerations, I think it is also valuable to know if certain faculty are ok with their names being shared, as this can serve as an extra piece of persuasion for the academic community who might ‘know’ the faculty using OER – it is like a behavioural nudge, if you know that someone you respect is doing this type of work, you might be more likely to do the same. What I want to say is, if a person is comfortable with their name being shared, it may increase the success of advocacy and give credibility to the efforts. Have a lovely day everyone, Ksenia Cheinman (she/her/elle), MA, MLIS Manager, Research and Strategy| Educational Technology Research & Innovation | User Experience Directorate Learning Programs Branch | Canada School of Public Service Gestionnaire, Recherche et planification stratégique| Recherche et innovation en technologie éducative | Direction de l’expérience utilisateur Direction générale des programmes d’apprentissage | École de la fonction publique du Canada ksenia.cheinman(a)canada.ca<mailto:ksenia.cheinman@canada.ca> |604-773-4523| LinkedIn<http://www.linkedin.com/in/kseniacheinman> | Twitter<https://twitter.com/altspaces> From: Bcoelsteering <bcoelsteering-bounces(a)lists.bccampus.ca> On Behalf Of Darcye Lovsin Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2021 10:27 AM To: bcoelsteering(a)lists.bccampus.ca Subject: Re: [Bcoelsteering] Open Textbooks/OER Adoptions Hi all, Thank you, Lauri and Debra, for the additional information and links you sent. The Open Oregon link is helpful, but even if we don't have the capacity to do something so formal in BC, I really see the value in sharing the information even within this group. I reviewed the individual institution's blogs and websites, but unfortunately the information tends to be fragmented or missing as the posts serve a different purpose. One of the number one reasons faculty cite for not adopting OER is the time it takes to find the right materials. We may be able to cut down on that time for some courses by sharing what other related courses are using (we can redact faculty names if need be). I know we are all very busy right now, so perhaps we can discuss this at our next meeting on March 22. If anyone is willing to share their information before then, it would be much appreciated (no pressure though). At Cap we have a student research assistant collecting our stats right now, but once the document is complete I can share it with anyone who is interested.

Hi BCOEL steering committee, I hope many of you were able to join today's event, or that you can view the recording once it is available from the BCcampus event archives<https://bccampus.ca/events/>. I for one was blown away by the student panelists in particular and left feeling so energized and hopeful! Please join me in thanking our amazing event planning team, without whom this would not have been possible. They oversaw communications, nominated and invited panelists, secured institutional funding and BCcampus tech support, brainstormed discussion questions, and ensured everything ran smoothly before and during the event. Huge thanks to Amanda Grey, Darcye Lovsin, Donna Langille, Hope Power, Lin Brander, and Urooj Nizami. Best Regards, Mia Clarkson

Vital Source update

by Brenda Smith

Hi all, So Senate had a "lively" discussion about VitalSource yesterday. I was unable to watch because I had another commitment, but apparently the VP Finance spoke and apologized multiple times for the lack of consultation and how the announcement was written. He has said that a full committee with students, faculty, and staff will be established to have a consultative process to look at textbook affordability. So, it looks like it's at least on hold.

Code of best practices in fair dealing/use in OER

by Lindsay Tripp

Hi all, I just attended a session for Fair Dealing Week with Dr. Carys Craig from Osgoode Hall Law School. She highlighted a resource that I thought might be of interest to this group: Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Open Educational Resources: A Guide for Authors, Adapters & Adopters of Openly Licensed Teaching and Learning Materials<https://www.wcl.american.edu/impact/initiatives-programs/pijip/documents/co…> (February 17, 2021). Note that Appendix Three (p. 30~) is authored by Carys and focuses on educational fair dealing in Canada. Many thanks, Lindsay

Open Education Event - Honouring Indigenous Writers on Wikipedia

by Fields, Erin

For the past several years UBC Library, the First Nations and Indigenous Studies Program, and event sponsors (see below) have organized the Honouring Indigenous Writers Wikipedia Edit-a-thon<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/HonouringIndigenousWriters>. This edit-a-thon event, inspired by Daniel Heath Justice’s<https://fnis.arts.ubc.ca/persons/daniel-justice/> Twitter campaign of the same name, seeks to bring community editors together to work on editing Wikipedia entries for Indigenous authors in an attempt to tackle the systemic bias of Wikipedia while also trying to raise the profile of Indigenous writers. Instead of the annual in-person event this year the organizing team has put together a schedule of free events and Wikipedia-related activities designed for virtual participation throughout the month of March 2021. The events include: * Author readings <https://hiw.open.ubc.ca/events> by Smokii Sumac, Richard Van Camp, Tenille Campbell, Marilyn Dumont and more * Self-paced Weekly Wikipedia Challenges <https://hiw.open.ubc.ca/activities> with prize draws * Wikipedia training and drop-in Zoom sessions<https://hiw.open.ubc.ca/events> * <https://hiw.open.ubc.ca/events> A panel discussion<https://hiw.open.ubc.ca/events> from the UBC Vancouver Public Humanities Hub on Wikipedia as public scholarship * And a social media campaign on Twitter<https://twitter.com/HIW_Wiki> These events and activities are free and open to anyone to participate. Please join us at our kickoff event and reading with Smokii Sumac on February 24th at 7:00pm PST, and learn more about the other events we have planned! You can also read more at the HIW home page<https://hiw.open.ubc.ca/>, and at the HIW Wikipedia Meetup Page<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/HonouringIndigenousWriters/U…>. We would also appreciate your support of the event by helping to promote it through your listservs, social media accounts, and other spaces to help raise awareness of Indigenous literature and engage in open community knowledge creation. The event team has developed a number of social media assets in a variety of sizes for ease of sharing. The assets can be downloaded here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JjUP3kuTsogRBLXv4HF7c281MXLu0x_y?us… Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions and thank you in advance for any support you can give in making this event a success. Thank you to event sponsors, the Institute for Critical Indigenous Studies<https://cis.arts.ubc.ca/>, Iron Dog Books<https://irondogbooks.com/>, BCcampus<https://bccampus.ca/>, and the UBC Bookstore<https://bookstore.ubc.ca/>.

CFLA/CARL letter re: access to government publications during Covid-19

by Lindsay Tripp

Hello all, In follow up to the discussion regarding copyright advocacy at our last meeting, I'm attaching the letter (in French and English) authored by CFLA-FCAB and CARL-ABRC. Annette DeFaveri circulated it on the BCLA listserv on Dec 1, 2020 on behalf of Rebecca Raven, Executive Director CFLA-FCAB, with the following note: "The Copyright Committee of CFLA-FCAB has been busy advocating with our federal government to modernize and improve access to government information. A recent letter regarding Crown Copyright shared with Cabinet Ministers and MPs (attached) has had a positive response and we are encouraged by the number of follow up conversations we had scheduled as a result of the communique. We wanted to give you a heads up that next steps for the Committee include communication with provincial governments to inform and gain support. Member associations will be copied on the relevant letters for their jurisdictions." I'll keep you posted on future correspondence with CPSLD about this. Thanks, Lindsay Lindsay Tripp Copyright Librarian Langara Library 604.323.5290 100 West 49th Avenue, Vancouver, BC, V5Y 2Z6 Unceded Musqueam Territory [Langara Logo]<https://langara.ca/> ________________________________ Please consider the environment before printing.

Examples of open education strategy from BC institutions?

by Hope Power

Good morning all, At our last BCOEL steering committee meeting, I briefly shared about a new project I'll be working on to develop a strategy for SFU Library to increase support for OER adoptions and advance open education more broadly on campus. As part of this project work, I've been tasked with checking in with other institutions (locally and perhaps more broadly) for examples of open education strategy in action. So I would be very grateful indeed for any examples you might be able to share of publicly available documents that articulate plans, goals, visions, statements and/or policies that guide open education strategy at your Library and campus. I do know that Kwantlen has an exemplary "Open Education Strategic Plan 2018-2023<https://kpu.pressbooks.pub/openeducation/>" -- and Caroline and Karen, I would love to chat with you further about this sometime if you're willing and able :-) As I think this may be a topic of interest to others here as well, feel free to reply to our list here with any examples -- or to share with me directly if you feel more comfortable that way. I'm also happy to answer questions about this SFU Library project work any time! Thanks so much, Hope -- Hope Power Teaching & Learning Librarian W.A.C. Bennett Library (Burnaby) Simon Fraser University hpower(a)sfu.ca *Please note that I am away on Thursdays this semester. I respectfully acknowledge that SFU Burnaby is located on the unceded and traditional territories of the Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh, Musqueam and Kwikwetlem First Nations.

2021 Open Ed Week event: Call for planning team members

by Lindsay Tripp

Hello again all, Thanks to everyone who was able to pop onto our call today! Thanks also to Urooj for prompting us to start thinking about a 2021 Open Education Week event - March will be here before we know it. Mia kindly reiterated her willingness to serve as the team lead for the event. I looked back at the BCOEL 2020/21 Priority Sign-Up Sheet<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_CzR2moJJRJNIP7SRpeK5945S4ExVnlW5rdvM5H…> and a number of people put their name forward to assist. However, I realize that people's capacity may have changed since signing up, so feel free to delete or add your name to the Open Ed Week Event section of the Google Doc before end-of-day on November 27. After which, Mia, could I ask you to arrange a planning team meeting? (I think this could be in early January if it proves too difficult to connect in December.)

UBC Library - Open Scholarship in Practice Event

by Fields, Erin

[Open Scholarship in Practice]<https://open.ubc.ca/osip2020/> Open Scholarship in Practice 2020 Join us November 2–6 for a week of free webinars and workshops exploring the practice of open scholarship — from new tools that can increase the reproducibility of research, to new pedagogies that become possible when students and faculty members become co-creators engaged in meaningful, generative knowledge creation. Hear from UBC colleagues who are incorporating “openness” in innovative ways to enhance teaching, research, and public impact. Explore the full event calendar <https://open.ubc.ca/osip2020/> here<https://libcal.library.ubc.ca/calendar?cid=7544&t=g&d=0000-00-00&cal=7544&c…>, or browse the sessions below. Here is a highlight of a few of the sessions! Working in Public: Generosity and the Knowledge Commons Date: Tuesday, November 3, 2020 Time: 12:00 pm – 1:30 pm Location: A Zoom video conferencing link will be provided prior to the event to all who are confirmed to participate. Featured Keynote: Kathleen Fitzpatrick, Director of Digital Humanities and Professor of English Michigan State University Working in public, and with the public, can enable scholars to build vital, sustainable research communities, both within their fields, with other scholars in different fields, and with folks off-campus who care about the kinds of work that we do. By finding ways to connect with a broad range of publics, in a range of different registers, and in ways that allow for meaningful response, we can create the possibilities for far more substantial public participation in and engagement with the humanities, and with the academy more broadly. This talk explores the ideas in Professor Fitzpatrick’s influential book, Generous Thinking, and will focus on the challenges posed by working in public and the skills required to develop more publicly engaged scholarship. Co-sponsored by the UBC Library and the UBC Public Humanities Hub. Register Here<https://libcal.library.ubc.ca/event/3585287> Emerging Perspectives in Open Access Book Publishing Date: Wednesday, November 4, 2020 Time: 10:00 am – 11:00 am Location: A Zoom video conferencing link will be provided prior to the event to all who are confirmed to participate. Open Access monograph publishing is a rapidly expanding and evolving strategy for making scholarly work globally accessible. Universities, academic publishers, libraries, and scholarly organizations are developing new initiatives, partnerships, services, and business models to support open access options for authors of scholarly monographs, textbooks, and academic books. This event will explore the opportunities, challenges, and experiences of OA book publishing from the perspective of authors, series editors and publishers. You are invited to join a panel discussion of UBC faculty and publishers that will address their motivations for “going open”, as well as the processes, impacts, and changes that OA is bringing to academic book publishing. Panellists * Katherine Bowers, Katherine Bowers, Associate Professor of Slavic Studies, UBC Department of Central, Eastern, and Northern European Studies * Megan Brand, Production Editor, UBC Press * Rupert Gatti, Co-founder and Director of Open Book Publishers; Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, Director of Studies in Economics * Mark Turin, Associate Professor, UBC Institute for Critical Indigenous Studies & Department of Anthropology Register Here<https://libcal.library.ubc.ca/event/3584443> Publishing As Open Pedagogy: OJS & Pressbooks Date: Wednesday, November 4, 2020 Time: 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm Location: A Zoom video conferencing link will be provided prior to the event to all who are confirmed to participate. As open education continues to gain traction in higher education, many are looking for ways to expand their integration of open approaches beyond merely the inclusion of open materials. Open publishing is beginning to emerge as one pathway towards greater engagement in openness in the classroom. This panel will introduce participants to five people working in various capacities to support student publishing through Open Journal Systems and PressBooks, two open source publishing platforms that allow for open dissemination of student-created, instructor-supported content.
