Open education often gets framed as a technology problem. Where should OER live? In fact, as we as a CMC library team started planning for our recent grant, our first thoughts were about platforms, metadata standards, and software. We’re conditioned to think that way from years of cataloging and classifying information. If you find yourself asking, what platform should we build? Or, how can we brand and maintain a local repository? Go to a different session. Instead, this session is about somewhere else. Sustainable OER work depends more on people than it does platforms.
