Community Call on OER Findability Issues
http://www.carl-abrc.ca/mini-site-page/community-call-on-oer-findability/
Date: Wednesday, April 29, 2020
Time: 1:00-2:00 p.m. ET
Register here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/community-call-on-oer-findability-issues-ticket…
The Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL)’s Open Education Working Group (OEWG)<http://www.carl-abrc.ca/advancing-research/scholarly-communication/open-edu…> invites the Canadian open education community to join us in discussing findability issues when searching for and locating OER. In conversations among OEWG members, and during the January 2020 Open Education Leadership Essentials<http://www.carl-abrc.ca/mini-site-page/oele2020/> workshop, this question (as well as concerns about underlying metadata and aggregation thereof by larger databases) was a topic that came up frequently.
Whether you are a librarian, educator, or teaching and learning specialist, we hope you will join us and describe your experiences and thoughts regarding the OER searching experience.
In addition, if you produce or support the creation or deposit of OER into repositories, we hope you will share your thoughts with us regarding the use of metadata standards when describing OER, as well as the aggregation or harvesting of this metadata by search tools and databases.
This discussion will be led by Ali Versluis (Open Educational Resources Librarian, University of Guelph) and Lise Brin (Program Officer, Canadian Association of Research Libraries).

Appel de la communauté sur les difficultés liées à la recherche des REL
http://www.carl-abrc.ca/fr/mini-site-page/appel-de-communaute-recherche-des…
Date : le mercredi 29 avril 2020
Heure : 13 h 00 à 14 h 00 HE
Inscrivez-vous : https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/community-call-on-oer-findability-issues-ticket…
Le Groupe de travail sur l’éducation ouverte (GTEO)<http://www.carl-abrc.ca/fr/faire-avancer-la-recherche/communication-savante…> de l’Association des bibliothèques de recherche du Canada (ABRC) invite la communauté canadienne de l’éducation ouverte à se joindre à nous pour discuter des difficultés de trouvabilité lors de la recherche et de la localisation des REL. Au cours des conversations entre les membres du GTEO et lors de l'atelier de janvier 2020 « Open Education Leadership Essentials<http://www.carl-abrc.ca/fr/mini-site-page/oele2020/> », cette question (ainsi que les préoccupations concernant les métadonnées sous-jacentes et leur agrégation dans les bases de données) était un sujet qui revenait fréquemment.
Que vous soyez bibliothécaire, éducateur ou spécialiste de l'enseignement et de l'apprentissage, nous espérons que vous vous joindrez à nous et que vous partagerez vos expériences et vos réflexions concernant l'expérience de recherche de REL.
En outre, si vous produisez ou soutenez la création ou le dépôt de REL dans des dépôts, nous espérons que vous partagerez vos réflexions concernant l'utilisation des normes de métadonnées lors de la description des REL, ainsi que l'agrégation ou la collecte de ces métadonnées par des outils de recherche et bases de données.
Cette discussion sera dirigée par Ali Versluis (bibliothécaire Open Educational Resources, Université de Guelph) et Lise Brin (agente de programme, Association canadienne des bibliothèques de recherche).

I have an instructor looking for an open textbook to replace the following:
Howlett, M., Ramesh, M., & Perl, A. (2009). Studying public policy: Policy cycles & policy subsystems (3rd ed.). Don Mills, ON: Oxford University Press. There is a newer version (2020), but there are limited copies - also available as an e-book though.

Hi Venecia,
I'm not aware of a Canadian version of Organizational Behaviour, and don't see any in the main Canadian OER repositories. However, if someone on the CanadaOER listserv knows of one in production, they will hopefully inform you and the group.

Subject: OER for Organizational Behaviour
Hello,
I am not sure if I am sending this to the right email address (if not please let me know where to send it), but I wanted to find out if there is a Canadian Organizational Behaviour OER.
I found 2 books, one from OpenStax and the other from the University of Minnesota. They are both good, but I wanted to know if there is a Canadian one with case studies and examples from Canadian companies.
Thanking you in advance,

Subject: [Canadaoer] Now Open: Alberta's Provincial OER Publishing Program!
Dear colleagues,
The University of Alberta Library and the Alberta OER Technology and Infrastructure Working Group is pleased to announce the new Open Education Alberta<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/pressbooks.library.ualberta.ca/__;!!M91p…> program.
This no-fee provincial program seeks to eliminate barriers to adopting, adapting and creating open textbooks by providing Alberta post-secondary institutions with easy-to-use online publishing software. The University of Alberta Library will host and maintain the Pressbooks publishing software, and partner institutions will establish workflows and service models that fit their unique community needs.
Thank you to Mount Royal University, MacEwan University, University of Calgary, University of Lethbridge and the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology for their contributions to the development of this program.
Why do we need this program?
Many institutions are eager to pursue the development of Open Education initiatives on their campuses, but do not have access to the technical infrastructure or staff to host the tools and software required to adapt or create new content. The UofA, which already manages a local OER publishing program, is well-positioned to expand its hosting to support more content, while institutions with special expertise in content and course creation, open pedagogy, scholarly communications, and project management, can contribute to the program through the development of content and supporting materials. Because the published textbooks will be openly available to anyone, the entire post-secondary community in Alberta can benefit from this collaborative program.
What are OER?
Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching and learning materials that allow free use and reuse, without charge. OERs often have a Creative Commons license<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/creativecommons.org/__;!!M91pNQ!dKzX454W…> that states specifically how the material may be used, reused, adapted, and shared.
What is Pressbooks?
Pressbooks<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/pressbooks.com/__;!!M91pNQ!dKzX454W-op0t…> is a simple publishing software for the authoring and publication of multimedia-rich print books, ebooks, and webbooks. The published books are shareable in multiple formats including pdf, epub, and mobi and can easily be adapted and updated using the Pressbooks software.
For more information, see https://pressbooks.library.ualberta.ca<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/pressbooks.library.ualberta.ca/__;!!M91p…> or contact library.publishing(a)ualberta.ca<mailto:library.publishing@ualberta.ca>

Hi All,
Any chance that someone has a lead on OER that is related to training, husbandry, and riding of horses? I'm not even sure where I would begin looking for this type of content so any help is appreciated!
