Hi Jessica.
I teach a course on design thinking for LIS students. It has modules on UX
and prototyping.
I don't use a book. I am not aware of an OER book that is a primer to
design thinking.
Maybe the closest thing are the various toolkits that IDEO has created -
general as well as toolkits for educators and librarians. These are step by
step guides to conducting design challenges.

There are abundant web-based resources that your instructor could leverage
for just about any week of a course on these topics.
Just starting with what IDEO and the Standford D. School have made
available is a good start. There are loads of good blogs on design thinking
and UX that are good sources.
This is a good example:

If you have access to Kanopy for video, I have found some great content in
there for design and prototyping.
This may be a case of creating an alt-textbook composed of content from
multiple sources. That's what has worked well for my course so that my
students don't have to buy a book on design thinking to succeed in the
course.

Hi All,
I’m working with an instructor who is developing a new course on user
experience design, design thinking, and prototyping. I’ve looked at
MERLOT, OERCommons, Open Textbook Library, eCampus Ontario, and BCcampus
materials and I was wondering if anyone knows of any hidden gems from other
repositories?
Thanks for your time!
Cheers,
Jessica
