I’m not as familiar with university listservs as I’ve only worked at the polytechnic
level. I am aware of the Canadian OER listserv (Canada OER, canadaoer(a)mail.bccampus.ca )
but the membership is a wide range of academic and non-academic folks.
Would CAPAL have a listserv that would be appropriate? Other than that, I’m only aware of
provincial organizations such as AAAL (Alberta Association of Academic Libraries). I can
forward this information to AAAL as I’m a member.
Cheers,
Jessica

Subject: Re: Registration for OeLE event?
Hi Jessica, thank you for reaching out. I have included below the call for nominations
that we released last Friday. You will note that the form must be completed by the
University Librarian (or Associate University Librarian) and that only one person can be
recommended per institution.
Our outreach to colleges and institutes has been quite uneven – do you perhaps know if
there is an association of libraries within institutes? I would happily ask them to
distribute this message to their members. Any suggestions you can offer would be
appreciated!
Cheers,
Lise

Call for Attendee Nominations: Open Education Leadership Essentials (OeLE) Event
January 27-28, Toronto, ON – Ryerson University
**Deadline: November 25, 2019**
CARL, along with sponsor BCcampus, invites nominations for participants to the Open
Education Leadership Essentials (OeLE) workshop, January 27-28 (immediately prior to the
OLA SuperConference) at Ryerson University, Toronto. The OeLE has been designed by the
CARL Open Education Working Group as a way to provide Canadian library practitioners
active in open education with the information, skills and resources to lead in this area.
The event will engage participants with presentations, community building sessions, and
hands-on activities that will provide participants with the building blocks to implement
OE programs on their own campuses. This event is intended for active open education
practitioners within libraries at Canadian post-secondary educational institutions. Given
that there is a maximum registration of 65 for this workshop, the organizers will
prioritize regional representation while also ensuring participation of those with
demonstrated engagement with open education when deciding on the final attendee list.
Important notes:
* Only one nomination should be submitted per institution. Please ensure the
individual nominated is able to attend the event on January 27-28, 2020. (Note: In the
event that all 65 spaces are not taken by unique representatives from Canadian
institutions, we will turn to a waitlist. To have a second person from your institution
added to this waitlist, please email
lise.brin@carl-abrc.ca<mailto:lise.brin@carl-abrc.ca>.)
* Nominations must be submitted by the institution’s University Librarian or Associate
University Librarian (or equivalent) no later than Monday, November 25th, 2019. We are
aiming to communicate the list of selected attendees on Monday, December 2. Please note
that there will be a registration fee of $100, but that this fee will be waived for
members of the CARL Open Education Working Group.
Please note that in the months following the event, OeLE participants will be expected to
collaborate with the CARL Open Education Working Group to extend this learnings into their
regions via the creation and delivery of introductory satellite events which aim to
develop a general understanding of core open education concepts and issues across academic
libraries across the country.

Subject: Registration for OeLE event?
Hi Lise,
I was wondering if a date had been set to open registration for the OeLE event in January?
I know this will be a fairly small event and there is a lot of interest from Librarians
across Canada. I would love to attend so I do not want to miss registration.
Cheers,
Jessica
