Hi Heather,

 

The Ontario college libraries has an OER Committee and we’ve created a website to house library support materials for library staff. A part of our goals is to support learning and education amongst our library staff in all things OER. I hope that you might find some of the content useful for your efforts!

 

Thanks!

Gordana

Niagara College acknowledges the land on which we gather is the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe peoples, many of whom continue to live and work here today. This territory is covered by the Upper Canada Treaties and is within the land protected by the Dish With One Spoon Wampum agreement. Today this gathering place is home to many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples and acknowledging reminds us that our great standard of living is directly related to the resources and friendship of Indigenous peoples.

Hello all.

 

There's been some restructuring in our library, which has resulted in changes in some priorities. As such, after many years of trying, our library is now interested in playing a role in our open educational practices initiative. I'm wondering if anyone has any librarian-specific resources to help me "onboard" them to an existing initiative that has been run by the Teaching and Learning Centre for the past 8 years.

 

Thank you.
