At Fanshawe College, we have the OER Design
Studio<https://www.fanshawelibrary.com/oerdesignstudio/> in the library to support
faculty looking to adopt or create OER. The library staff support the process by
completing the environmental scans. You can see more about our process in our Development
Guide<https://ecampusontario.pressbooks.pub/oerdevelopmentguide/chapter/studio-process-overview/>.

Hi Debra,
I have been advocating for a librarian technician to support the Scholarly Communications
and Resource Sharing Unit<https://library.upei.ca/scrs> at UPEI for a little over a
year and with a recent number of retirements in the Library, we have had the opportunity
to revisit library technician roles. We are adding scholarly comm support to a library
technician position -- it will be part circulation and part schol comm. The OER tasks that
the library technician will complete are:
* Creating accounts on Pressbooks
* Troubleshooting technical problems on Pressbooks and/or reporting issues to our
Systems team
* Light formatting of OERs on Pressbooks (mainly formatting that is tricky due to
errant HTML)
* updating the library OER webpages (
https://library.upei.ca/oer)
* DOIs or ISBN creation
* compiling stats related to OERs

Hello,
Like many of you, we are always looking for ways the Library can support faculty
transitioning to OER or ZTC. I would like to hear from any libraries out there that have
Library Technicians helping faculty and, if so, in what way? I’m aware of KPU’s
OPUS<https://www.kpu.ca/library/OPUS> and that is naturally what we aspire to have
one day 😊
Warm regards,
Debra
