According to the Hewlett Foundation, Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching, learning and research materials in any medium – digital or otherwise – that reside in the public domain or have been released under an open license that permits no-cost access, use, adaptation and redistribution by others with no or limited restrictions.
Examples of OER
Librarians are available to offer consultation services and support to faculty who are interested in OER adoption, creation, or adaption.
